The public federal record on N5551U, 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 Briese Mathew, an individual, certificate issued December 17, 2019, expires December 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for normal, dated May 13, 1991, consistent with the 1991 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1277 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N5551U was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna 210R (serial 21064898, cancelled October 26, 1988); Piper PA-28-140 (serial 28-26880, cancelled August 20, 1970). 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 N5551U. 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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
