Records check free · 1 to understand · 4 clear

The public federal record on N6226K, 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.

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N6226K was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Republic RC-3 (serial 432, cancelled August 11, 1955). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record
