The public federal record on N9874, 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 Tall-Towers Aviation INC, a corporation, certificate issued May 6, 2014, expires May 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated February 15, 1977, 3 years after the 1974 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 1307 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9874 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Travel Air E-4000 (serial 1060, cancelled June 27, 1932). 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 N9874: Accident on March 11, 1989 at Stuttgart, AR: minor 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.
