The public federal record on N80448, 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.

ATTENTIONRegistration and identity

Registration status is "Registration pending". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]

NOTEAirworthiness certificate

Experimental certificate for amateur built; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 05041573 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N80448 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna 172M (serial 17266590, cancelled October 12, 1979); Beech 35 (serial D-48, cancelled June 2, 1960). 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 N80448. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
