The public federal record on N430AF, 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 Air First LLC, an LLC, certificate issued September 22, 2023, expires September 30, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for normal; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1454 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N430AF was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Kovens Bart F SPORT 2S/QUICKSILVER (serial 0200, cancelled January 19, 2018); Cessna 150H (serial 15068782, cancelled May 25, 1983). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N430AF. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [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.
