The public federal record on N90426, 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 Faulkner Linda W Trustee, an individual, certificate issued January 14, 2021, expires January 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 25, 1956, 9 years after the 1947 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 47359 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N90426 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Douglas C-54B (serial 10433, cancelled March 25, 1949). 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]
1 NTSB record under N90426: Accident on May 2, 1984 at Dummerston, VT: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [4]
