The public federal record on N51942, 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 Textron Aviation INC, a corporation, certificate issued , expires date not given. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated April 24, 2024, 14 years after the 2010 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 208B2197 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N51942 was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Kennel/Weber PETIT BREEZY (serial 001, cancelled March 29, 1989); Cessna 172 (serial 17274380, cancelled July 28, 1981); Fairchild PT-19A (serial T42-1872, cancelled May 9, 1951).

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 N51942. 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.
