The public federal record on N7048A, 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.
Registration status is "First notice for registration renewal". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]
Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated April 3, 2009, consistent with the 2008 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 02218X3 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N7048A was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Lockwood Phillip AIR CAM (serial AC001, cancelled January 22, 1997); Cessna 172 (serial 29148, cancelled January 29, 1991). 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]
1 NTSB record under N7048A: Accident on September 21, 1988 at Panacea, FL: no injuries, destroyed. Details below. [4]
