Built of
aluminium
The airframe is aluminium: sheet metal over a riveted frame, the way most aircraft have been built since the 1940s. Glued (bonded) aluminium honeycomb rather than rivets. This is how the Grumman American Avn. Corp. AA-5 Traveler, Cheetah and Tiger family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N4544R, 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 Hartman William H, an individual, certificate issued July 2, 1991, expires December 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial AA5B1227 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N4544R was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-28-140 (serial 28-21249, cancelled June 23, 1970). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record
