The public federal record on N9610, 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 Yankee Air Force INC, a corporation, certificate issued July 23, 2020, expires July 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 42 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9610 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Ford 4-AT-B (serial 53, cancelled May 18, 1965). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N9610. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
