The public federal record on N3505W, 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.

ATTENTIONRegistration and identity

Registration status is "Registration pending, pending cancellation". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated September 19, 2011, 4 years after the 2007 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1138 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N3505W was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-32-260 (serial 32-386, cancelled August 17, 1971). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
