The public federal record on N888KT, 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 Seven Sierra Yankee LLC, an LLC, certificate issued June 8, 2020, expires June 30, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

NOTEAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 61P07838063396 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N888KT was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Gonsoulin Jerry T KOLB TWINSTAR (serial 1, cancelled October 25, 1995). 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 N888KT. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
