The public federal record on N735CB, 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 Chesapeake Bay Helicopters INC, a corporation, certificate issued April 10, 2025, expires April 30, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 4, 2010, 30 years after the 1980 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1100858D for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N735CB was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Beechcraft Corp G58 (serial TH-2429, cancelled September 5, 2017); Cessna 182Q (serial 18265309, cancelled January 25, 1977). 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
