The public federal record on N407SA, 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 Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, a government body, certificate issued November 28, 2007, expires October 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated February 16, 2007, 7 years after the 2000 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 53449 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
No other airframe has carried N407SA according to the deregistered file. [2]
