The public federal record on N42J, 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 Crania Holdings LLC, an LLC, certificate issued February 12, 2026, expires February 28, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated January 29, 2019, 42 years after the 1977 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 BC-29 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N42J was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Johannes-Robert ACROSPORT RJ-2 (serial 2, cancelled October 13, 1999); Cessna 421 (serial 421-0185, cancelled June 26, 1973). 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 N42J: Accident on August 14, 1999 at Campbellsport, WI: fatal, destroyed (1 fatal). 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.
