The public federal record on N50778, 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 "Sale reported". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated April 10, 2007, 46 years after the 1961 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]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 432 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N50778 was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Raytheon Aircraft Company C90A (serial LJ-1638, cancelled July 10, 2001); Cessna 150J (serial 15069547, cancelled June 21, 1973); Taylorcraft BF12-65 (serial 3302, cancelled November 10, 1955). 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]
1 NTSB record under N50778: Accident on July 31, 2025 at Moriarty, NM: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [4]
