The public federal record on N942SP, 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.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to Jet 1 Aviation INC, a co-owned, certificate issued August 5, 2026, expires August 31, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated August 10, 2026, 21 years after the 2005 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 20042 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N942SP was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 172S (serial 172S8137, cancelled January 24, 2018). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
