The public federal record on N502V, 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.
Registration status is "Registration certificate revoked". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]
Standard certificate; the FAA file gives no certificate date. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 11815 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N502V was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Pittsburgh Aeronautical Labora PAL-1 (serial 4, cancelled date not given). 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 N502V. 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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
