The public federal record on N479JA, 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.

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N479JA was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Beech C90A (serial LJ-1177, cancelled November 19, 2001). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
