The public federal record on N6204P, 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 Wisto James F, an individual, certificate issued March 2, 2017, expires March 31, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for utility, dated March 10, 1981, consistent with the 1981 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 15284987 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N6204P was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-24-250 (serial 24-1306, cancelled December 21, 1972). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N6204P. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
