The public federal record on N5690Z, 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.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to Gold Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued June 29, 2025, expires June 30, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial TH-1594 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N5690Z was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Piper PA-22-108 (serial 22-9496, cancelled May 23, 1963); Enstrom F-28C (serial 4782, cancelled date not given). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record
