The public federal record on N901BC, 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 Aviation Inventory Resources INC, a corporation, certificate issued October 15, 2025, expires October 31, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated November 18, 2011, 24 years after the 1987 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]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 340A-088 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N901BC was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna 402B (serial 402B0379, cancelled April 22, 2003); Douglas DC-6 (serial 43130, cancelled July 11, 1966). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
