The public federal record on N8515N, 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 Carolina Xl Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued August 25, 2022, expires August 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 28-7305235 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N8515N was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-28-235 (serial 28-11304, cancelled September 30, 1969). 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]

CLEARAccident and incident record
