The public federal record on N76AJ, 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 Mississippi State University Soaring Club, a partnership, certificate issued January 29, 2002, expires July 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for exhibition, dated November 25, 2003, consistent with the 2001 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 78.02.06 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N76AJ was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Bell 206-L4 (serial 52077, cancelled January 18, 1996). 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 N76AJ. 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.
