Records check free · 1 to understand · 4 clear

The public federal record on N71203, 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 Santa Anita INC, a corporation, certificate issued April 20, 2004, expires June 30, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N71203 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Luscombe 8A (serial 2630, cancelled January 5, 1959). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N71203. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
