The public federal record on N31708, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.
Valid registration to Albatross Air INC, a corporation, certificate issued April 21, 2024, expires April 30, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for utility; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial EA-486 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N31708 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Hiller UH-12E (serial 2181, cancelled August 9, 1973); Aeronca 65-LB (serial LB11811, cancelled October 7, 1955). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N31708. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
