No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]

N7055K was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-20 (serial 20-162, cancelled March 13, 1951). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
