The public federal record on N71703, 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 Shippee William S, an individual, certificate issued May 9, 2008, expires July 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 001 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N71703 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna U206F (serial U20602161, cancelled December 6, 1978); Luscombe 8A (serial 3130, cancelled March 19, 1956). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

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
