The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]

N44KV was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Vames George J QUICKIE (serial 373, cancelled April 23, 1990). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
