The public federal record on N749SA, 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.

Valid registration to Aleutian Airways LLC, an LLC, certificate issued March 24, 2025, expires March 31, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated August 16, 2023, 29 years after the 1994 manufacture year.

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 2000-055 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N749SA was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Boeing 747-300 SERIES (serial 24194, cancelled July 13, 2012). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
