The public federal record on N888CS, 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 Zg Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued May 19, 2026, expires May 31, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for transport, dated December 3, 2001, consistent with the 2001 manufacture year. [1]

N888CS was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 402B (serial 402B1047, cancelled September 21, 1988). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N888CS. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
