The public federal record on N445B, 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 Dornoch Services LLC, an LLC, certificate issued March 20, 2025, expires March 31, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 2, 2025, 20 years after the 2005 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 172S9776 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N445B was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Bell Grover S BD-4 (serial 284, cancelled March 21, 2013); Beech 35 (serial D-1461, cancelled November 19, 1958). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
