The public federal record on N860CA, 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.
Registration status is "Sale reported". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]
Standard certificate for normal, dated November 14, 2011, consistent with the 2011 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 596 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N860CA was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Beech 1900D (serial UE-134, cancelled October 5, 2005). 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]
