The public federal record on N9UP, 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 Bella Charles, an individual, certificate issued April 4, 2013, expires April 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated December 12, 1955, 9 years after the 1946 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 2146 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N9UP was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Beech 95-B55 (T42A) (serial TC1273, cancelled October 19, 1990). 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 N9UP: Accident on September 22, 1990 at Smithfield, PA: fatal, destroyed (2 fatal). 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.
