The public federal record on N88TW, 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 Wheel-Air LLC, an LLC, certificate issued September 19, 2008, expires April 30, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated January 7, 2014, 16 years after the 1998 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 20800292 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N88TW was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Beech F90 (serial LA-29, cancelled August 24, 2001). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

ATTENTIONRecent registry documents

1 loan or lien document received by the registry recently (September 1, 2026). The full title and lien picture is in the FAA aircraft records file. [3]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N88TW. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms

These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.

PENDINGAirworthiness directives and utilization
