The public federal record on N75038, 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 Aerial Advantage INC, a corporation, certificate issued November 1, 2021, expires November 30, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for balloon, dated July 15, 2004, consistent with the 2004 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 5055 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N75038 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Aeronca 7AC (serial 7AC-3763, cancelled June 20, 1977). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N75038. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
