The public federal record on N318Y, 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 Freeman Heritage Collection LLC, an LLC, certificate issued July 23, 2008, expires October 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated March 19, 1979, 3 years after the 1976 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 6829-D-367 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N318Y was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Sikorsky S-61A (serial 61094, cancelled October 15, 2002). 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]
1 NTSB record under N318Y: Accident on March 26, 2002 at Lakehead, CA: fatal, destroyed (1 fatal). Details below. [4]
