The public federal record on N5593N, 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 International Air Services INC Trustee, a corporation, certificate issued June 1, 2026, expires June 30, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Multiple certificate for standard; restricted; forest; aerial surveying; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]

N5593N was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna AT-17 (serial 1729, cancelled March 30, 1955). 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]
