The public federal record on N47JD, 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.

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated March 23, 2026, 46 years after the 1980 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 421C0805 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N47JD was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Schempp-Hirth VENTUS A (serial 29, cancelled October 15, 2012). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
