The public federal record on N8001X, 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 Becker Brian P, an individual, certificate issued July 8, 2024, expires July 31, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for balloon, dated June 10, 2024, consistent with the 2024 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 5807 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N8001X was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 172B (serial 17248501, cancelled March 29, 2018). 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 N8001X. 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.
