Built of
composite
The airframe is composite: carbon fibre or glass fibre set in resin, moulded in large pieces with few joints, which gives smooth shapes but needs different inspection and repair methods from metal. A carbon-fibre glider. This is how the Jonker Sailplanes JS3 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N33GW, 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.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to Morrissey Mark, an individual, certificate issued September 18, 2026, expires September 30, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 03-034 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N33GW was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Waugh Gary STEEN SKYBOLT (serial 1, cancelled May 18, 2011); Beech 65 (serial LC106, cancelled October 18, 1978). 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]

CLEARAccident and incident record
