The public federal record on N82BK, 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 Sparkman Roger, an individual, certificate issued October 17, 2023, expires October 31, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 3339 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N82BK was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Schleicher ASW-20 (serial 20580, cancelled November 15, 2010). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
