The public federal record on N550AR, 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 an owner whose details are withheld, an individual, certificate issued January 19, 2018, expires January 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Light sport certificate for glider, dated February 16, 2018, consistent with the 2017 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 893 SFNM 912 LSA for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N550AR was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 550 (serial 550-0661, cancelled September 1, 2005). 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 N550AR. 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.
