The public federal record on N9FH, 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 Brainerd Helicopters INC, a corporation, certificate issued April 8, 2015, expires April 30, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 30, 2016, 35 years after the 1981 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 80-23461 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9FH was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Beech 99 (serial U-94, cancelled September 16, 2009); Hosier RAND KR-1 (serial F67362, 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]
