The airframe is aluminium: sheet metal over a riveted frame, the way most aircraft have been built since the 1940s. An all-metal glider. This is how the Let L-13 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 N68ST, 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 Stefenelli Aviation N-Tr INC Trustee, a corporation, certificate issued November 3, 2016, expires November 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated July 6, 2020, 47 years after the 1973 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 25508 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N68ST was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Pegasus Aviation QUANTUM 15 (serial 7899, cancelled November 16, 2010); Piper PA-31 (serial 31-729, cancelled January 7, 2005). 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]

ATTENTIONAccident and incident record

1 NTSB record under N68ST: Incident on June 10, 1986 at Kingston, OK: no injuries, minor damage. Details below. [4]
