Records check free · 1 to understand · 4 clear

The public federal record on N77518, 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 United Airlines INC, a corporation, certificate issued December 30, 2008, expires January 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for transport, dated December 28, 2008, consistent with the 2008 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 31605 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N77518 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper J3C-65 (serial 22010, cancelled January 24, 1951). 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 N77518. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
