The public federal record on N3639X, 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 Richardson Sean M, an individual, certificate issued June 4, 2015, expires June 30, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated January 10, 1994, 4 years after the 1990 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]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial RX83058 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N3639X was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Aero Commander 100-180 (serial 5099, cancelled date not given). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
