Records check free · 1 to understand · 3 clear

The public federal record on N37778, 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 Davidson Milton P, an individual, certificate issued May 27, 1983, expires September 30, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

NOTEAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 2102 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N37778 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Douglas DC-6A (serial 45458, cancelled January 12, 1981); Porterfield FP-65 (serial 987, cancelled March 12, 1951). 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 N37778. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms
