Records check free · 1 to understand · 4 clear

The public federal record on N8283Y, 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.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to Phillips Thaddus L, a co-owned, certificate issued March 26, 2002, expires November 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal; utility, dated September 30, 1980, consistent with the 1980 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 28-8190064 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N8283Y was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-30 (serial 30-1417, cancelled May 15, 1967). 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 N8283Y. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
