The public federal record on N44287, 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

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N44287 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Taylorcraft BC12-D (serial 10087, cancelled June 1, 1971). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N44287. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
