The public federal record on N8ME, 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 Ready Aim Flyer LLC, an LLC, certificate issued November 15, 2016, expires November 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated July 3, 2000, 27 years after the 1973 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 2009 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N8ME was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 177RG (serial 177RG0630, cancelled November 16, 1992). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
