A welded steel-tube fuselage and wooden wings, all covered in fabric: the construction of the 1930s and 1940s, which makes wood rot and fabric age the inspection items. A homebuilt: steel-tube fuselage, wooden wings, fabric. This is how the Corben Baby Ace D family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N63499, 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 Adams Max T, an individual, certificate issued October 27, 2023, expires October 31, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated October 12, 1997, 33 years after the 1964 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]

ATTENTIONPrior registrations of this airframe

This airframe (serial 001) previously flew as N59A. N59A cancelled July 16, 2003. The conveyance sequence lives in the FAA aircraft records file. [2]

CLEARTail number reuse

No other airframe has carried N63499 according to the deregistered file. [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 N59A, N63499. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms

PENDINGAirworthiness directives and utilization
