The public federal record on N52973, 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 Spa And Pool Doctor LLC, an LLC, certificate issued December 1, 2021, expires December 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate

No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial S57A-3229 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N52973 was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Bell 412 (serial 36080, cancelled June 16, 1994); Cessna 182P (serial 18262980, cancelled November 26, 1974); Fairchild M-62A-4 (serial 4025, cancelled October 21, 1955). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
