The public federal record on N571CA, 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 Civil Air Patrol, a corporation, certificate issued January 13, 2025, expires January 31, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for normal; utility, dated November 23, 2024, consistent with the 2024 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 172S13251 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N571CA was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Diamond Aircraft DA 42 (serial 42.AC051, cancelled February 27, 2017); Boeing 757-23APF (serial 24456, cancelled September 9, 1999). 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 N571CA. 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.
