The public federal record on N9026S, 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 Pettus Gary A, an individual, certificate issued December 16, 2021, expires December 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated May 17, 2005, consistent with the 2005 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial SH20040001K for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9026S was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Bell 412EP (serial 36260, cancelled November 30, 2000); Beech B-55 (serial TC-965, cancelled January 25, 1977). 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 N9026S. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
