The public federal record on N70FC, 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.

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated August 29, 2013, 3 years after the 2010 manufacture year.

The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]

N70FC was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Swearingen SA-226T (serial T-226, cancelled February 2, 2010). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
