The public federal record on N9685A, 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 Varvayanis Mark, a co-owned, certificate issued August 29, 2013, expires August 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 26, 1982, 3 years after the 1979 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 360 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9685A was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 140A (serial 15406, cancelled November 27, 1953). 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]
1 NTSB record under N9685A: Accident on June 2, 2001 at Elkton, MD: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
