The public federal record on N48M, 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 Garrison William e, an individual, certificate issued November 16, 2019, expires November 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for normal, dated January 9, 1996, consistent with the 1996 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial BA-155 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N48M was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Lockheed VEGA 5C (serial 100, cancelled February 16, 1948). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N48M. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
