The public federal record on N97DM, 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 an owner whose details are withheld, an individual, certificate issued February 12, 2024, expires February 28, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for normal, dated September 6, 1997, consistent with the 1997 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 243409 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N97DM was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Martin James David LASER 200 (serial 001, cancelled April 6, 1995); Learjet Inc 24D (serial 253, cancelled date not given). 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 N97DM. 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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
