The public federal record on N9618H, 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.
Registration status is "Registration pending". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 13, 1993, 16 years after the 1977 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 18503454 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9618H was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna T-50 (serial 4543, cancelled February 20, 1950). 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]
2 NTSB records under N9618H: Accident on November 19, 1994 at Anchorage, AK: no injuries, substantial damage. Accident on March 15, 1987 at Skwentna, AK: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [4]
