The public federal record on N505PF, 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.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to 505Pfoxtrot LLC, an LLC, certificate issued June 26, 2025, expires June 30, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal, dated July 30, 2019, consistent with the 2019 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 65222 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N505PF was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Learjet Inc 23 (serial 23-006, cancelled September 12, 2019). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N505PF. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms
