The public federal record on N88656, 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 Alexander Howard L, an individual, certificate issued September 15, 2016, expires September 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate

No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial P76DCH05016270 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N88656 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna 150M (serial 15076188, cancelled September 2, 2010); Piper J3C-65 (serial 16285, cancelled October 13, 1955). 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
