The public federal record on N6239U, 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.

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N6239U was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Mooney M20C (serial 2078, cancelled April 29, 1965). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
