A welded steel-tube frame carries the loads, with aluminium (and some fibreglass) skins over it. The Meyers 200: a steel-tube cabin frame under aluminium skins. This is how the Aero Commander 200 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N418, 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 Vpropnw INC, a corporation, certificate issued March 13, 2023, expires March 31, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal, dated December 1, 1966, consistent with the 1966 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 359 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N418 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Roe & Co Ltd A V AUTO-GYRO C-8 (serial R6-4518, cancelled December 8, 1930). 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 N418. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
