The airworthiness certificate on file is dated July 5, 2013, 33 years after the 1980 manufacture year.

N59180 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 210L (serial 21060146, cancelled April 3, 1974). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
