The public federal record on N98CR, 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 Wilcox Dustin, a co-owned, certificate issued February 14, 2023, expires February 28, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Light sport certificate for airplane, dated August 7, 2006, consistent with the 2006 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 06-05-13 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N98CR was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cirrus Design Corp SR20 (serial 1014, cancelled September 25, 2002). 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 N98CR. 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.
