The public federal record on N399CZ, 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 N399Cz LLC, an LLC, certificate issued October 1, 2019, expires October 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated February 22, 1994, 25 years after the 1969 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 U-91 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N399CZ was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Beech 99 (serial U52, cancelled August 20, 2004). 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]
1 NTSB record under N399CZ: Accident on December 16, 2003 at Mosinee, WI: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
