The public federal record on N8846Q, 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.

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N8846Q was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Ayres Corporation S2R-600 (serial 2456R, cancelled July 18, 1978). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
