The public federal record on N540BN, 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.

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 12, 2014, 24 years after the 1990 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 2207 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

CLEARTail number reuse

No other airframe has carried N540BN according to the deregistered file. [2]
