The public federal record on N46BA, 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

N46BA was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Bird Aviation Inc SWALLOW-B (serial 7802312XC, cancelled March 28, 1991). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

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 N46BA. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
