The public federal record on N9055, 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 Western Antique Aeroplane & Automobile Museum, a corporation, certificate issued June 30, 2014, expires June 30, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated October 23, 2008, 79 years after the 1929 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 1005 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9055 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Fairchild Hiller FH-1100 (serial 95, cancelled October 30, 1972). 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 N9055: Accident on August 24, 2012 at Robbinsville, NJ: minor injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [4]
