steel tube and fabric
The fuselage is a welded steel-tube frame covered in fabric, with metal or wooden wing spars under fabric-covered wings; the fabric is replaced every few decades. The Ag Cat biplane: steel tube, aluminium wings, fabric. This is how the Grumman G-164 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N714Y, 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 Butte County Mosquito and Vector Control District, a government body, certificate issued January 7, 1966, expires May 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Restricted certificate for agriculture and pest control, dated May 8, 1964, consistent with the 1964 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 276 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N714Y was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: American Airplane & Engine PILGRIM 100A (serial 6610, cancelled April 20, 1936). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N714Y. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
