The public federal record on N852V, 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 Omega Air INC, a corporation, certificate issued January 17, 2018, expires January 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated July 13, 2004, 24 years after the 1980 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 47852 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N852V was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Waco KNF (serial 3260, cancelled January 6, 1931). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
1 loan or lien document received by the registry recently (September 8, 2026). The full title and lien picture is in the FAA aircraft records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N852V. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
