The public federal record on N33HB, 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 Sciortino David L, an individual, certificate issued January 25, 2023, expires January 31, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated December 27, 1984, consistent with the 1984 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 3 E 47 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N33HB was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Swearingen SA-226T (serial T226-205, cancelled May 23, 1975). 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 N33HB. 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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
