The public federal record on N99838, 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 Child Benjamin Harrison, an individual, certificate issued June 18, 2025, expires June 30, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 30, 2025, 70 years after the 1955 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 792 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N99838 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Dehavilland BEAVER U-6A (serial 792, cancelled February 16, 1989); Erco 415-C (serial 2461, cancelled August 15, 1949). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
