The public federal record on N82JW, 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.

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 26, 2026, 46 years after the 1980 manufacture year.

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

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N82JW was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Ward Joseph C And Judy T Q-2 (serial 2041, cancelled December 7, 1983). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
