The public federal record on N8116K, 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 Tatro Christopher A, an individual, certificate issued March 22, 2005, expires November 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated January 24, 2005, 26 years after the 1979 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]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 572B for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N8116K was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Stinson 108-2 (serial 108-3116, cancelled February 17, 1956). 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]
