The public federal record on N5307T, 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.

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial GLX-1207 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N5307T was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Piper PA-34-200 (serial 34-7250247, cancelled August 14, 1972); Cessna 172E (serial 172-51207, cancelled September 4, 1968); Cessna TR182 (serial R18201855, cancelled date not given).
