- Built of
- steel tube and aluminiumA welded steel-tube frame carries the loads, with aluminium (and some fibreglass) skins over it. The first M20 and M20A (1955 to 1960) had wooden wings and tails; all later ones are metal. This is how the Mooney M-20 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 N3526H, 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 Lyons Donald F, an individual, certificate issued March 8, 2011, expires March 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for normal, dated August 27, 1980, consistent with the 1980 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 24-1035 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N3526H was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Engineering & Research ERCOUPE 415-C (serial 4151, cancelled February 13, 1951). 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 N3526H. 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.
