The public federal record on N91JA, 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 Alspaugh George J, an individual, certificate issued February 15, 2024, expires February 28, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for exhibition, dated March 2, 2024, consistent with the 2024 manufacture year. [1]
