N526HA is a Bell 206B, a rotorcraft with turboshaft engines (a helicopter or multicopter), built in 2000. It has 5 seats. It is registered to Helo N526Ha LLC, an LLC in Richmond, Virginia. The registration is valid: it was issued on May 28, 2019 and expires on May 31, 2029. It holds a standard airworthiness certificate for normal, dated April 21, 2005.

Listed on the FAA charter and air-taxi certificate of Heloair, Inc., so it can be flown for hire; the registered owner is someone else, which is usual for a managed aircraft.

A mostly aluminium airframe with composite parts where they save weight: control surfaces, fairings, the tail or the rotor blades. This is how the Bell 206 JetRanger and LongRanger family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N526HA, 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 Helo N526Ha LLC, an LLC, certificate issued May 28, 2019, expires May 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated April 21, 2005, 5 years after the 2000 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 4541 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N526HA was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Hiller UH-12E (serial 5026, cancelled May 15, 1978). 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 N526HA. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms

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.

PENDINGAirworthiness directives and utilization

AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
