The public federal record on N8670L, 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 Simmons Aviation Services LLC, an LLC, certificate issued January 22, 2008, expires April 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated January 15, 2008, 39 years after the 1969 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 25-5123 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
No other airframe has carried N8670L according to the deregistered file. [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]
