The public federal record on N347UA, 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 University of Alaska Geophysical Institute, a government body, certificate issued December 29, 2016, expires December 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate

No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 042-010001-11 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N347UA was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Boeing 737-322 (serial 24251, cancelled September 1, 2010). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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

No NTSB investigation records located under N347UA. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
