The public federal record on N437AE, 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 Air Evac Ems INC, a corporation, certificate issued December 7, 2020, expires December 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal, dated March 22, 2013, consistent with the 2013 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 52449 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N437AE was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Eurocopter Deutschland Gmbh MBB-BK 117 C-2 (serial 9143, cancelled February 14, 2008). 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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N437AE. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
