The public federal record on N805PC, 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 Royal Air Freight INC, a corporation, certificate issued December 22, 2017, expires December 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for transport; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]

N805PC was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-31P (serial 31P7400216, cancelled date not given). 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 N805PC. 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.
