Records check free · 2 to understand · 3 clear

The public federal record on N65168, 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 Reynolds Darryl G, an individual, certificate issued January 9, 2003, expires April 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 70-15453 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N65168 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Bell 47G-4 (serial 3369, cancelled October 2, 1992). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

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 N65168. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms
