The public federal record on N7168F, 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.

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N7168F was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 150F (serial 15063768, cancelled June 26, 1970). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
