The public federal record on N472M, 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 Right Brother Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued May 11, 2023, expires May 31, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated March 19, 2004, 10 years after the 1994 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 4327 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N472M was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Martin 404 (serial 14234, cancelled January 2, 2001). 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]
