The public federal record on N52424, 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 Cavanaugh Flight Museum, a corporation, certificate issued January 29, 2009, expires April 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated October 29, 1984, 30 years after the 1954 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 137789 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N52424 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna 182P (serial 18262598, cancelled December 19, 1973); Fairchild PT-23 (serial T423107, cancelled December 14, 1956). 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 N52424. 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.
