The airframe is aluminium: sheet metal over a riveted frame, the way most aircraft have been built since the 1940s. This is how the Piper PA-38 Tomahawk 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 N464, 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.

ATTENTIONRegistration and identity

Registration status is "First notice for registration renewal". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal, dated February 23, 1979, consistent with the 1979 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 38-79A0682 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N464 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Douglas DC-7 (serial 44127, cancelled September 28, 1972). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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 N464. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
