The public federal record on N826DM, 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.

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated January 12, 2016, 21 years after the 1995 manufacture year.

The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]

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]
