Records check free · 2 to understand · 3 clear

The public federal record on N7704S, 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 Holte Bruce C, an individual, certificate issued August 24, 2018, expires August 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 27, 1979, 3 years after the 1976 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 1172-76 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N7704S was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Schweizer SGS 2-33A (serial 124, cancelled August 4, 1971). 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

No NTSB investigation records located under N7704S. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
