The public federal record on N7042L, 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.
Valid registration to Southwest Florida Aviation, a corporation, certificate issued June 1, 2022, expires June 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Restricted certificate for other; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 70-16398 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N7042L was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 310K (serial 310K0142, cancelled date not given). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N7042L. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
