The public federal record on N4171, 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.

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 54 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N4171 was previously assigned to 4 other aircraft: Mooney M-18C 55 (serial 366, cancelled July 30, 1956); Mooney M-18C 55 (serial 336, cancelled June 14, 1956); Coffman Sam H MONOPLANE (serial I-3122, cancelled April 12, 1929).
