The public federal record on N5654N, 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 Duke Kay L, an individual, certificate issued August 16, 2012, expires August 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated January 26, 2008, 6 years after the 2002 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]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 615 352 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N5654N was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Maule M-6-235 (serial 7465C, cancelled July 13, 2005); Consolidated Vultee BT-13A (serial 1910, cancelled January 11, 1952). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
