The public federal record on N8622E, 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 Chapin Ray DBA, an individual, certificate issued April 6, 2023, expires April 30, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal, dated May 25, 1982, consistent with the 1982 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 716 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N8622E was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-28-181 (serial 28-7690181, cancelled August 25, 1978). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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

No NTSB investigation records located under N8622E. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
