The public federal record on N9547T, 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 Jk Gray Family LLC, an LLC, certificate issued February 28, 2025, expires February 29, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N9547T was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 210 (serial 57347, cancelled May 17, 1960). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record
