U.S. CHAIN OF
TITLE REPORT: $55
From the day it rolled out of the factory door, someone owned
this plane. This report will give you insight into the complete
ownership history of the aircraft on file with the
FAA. Who owned it, where they lived and when they sold it
to the next owner. [Find out if it was really a "dry
states" aircraft!]
You'll receive the names of all owners
of the aircraft from the first day of registration
to the present, including address, type of transaction, dates
and conveyance information.
Please note that a
Chain of Title report does NOT include lien information or
337's, nor any information on foreign ownership.

FAA FORM 337's on CD: $39
If you're not familiar with them, the FAA
Form 337 is required to be filed with the FAA for any "major
alterations or repair" of an aircraft. Often
they cover the installation of a radio or an approved STC
mod, but sometimes they will reveal repairs
made after a major accident. If any 337's exist on
your future plane, you need to know it before you
buy!
Every form 337 is
recorded on a CD that is kept at the FAA Registry.
For only $39 you can have your own copy of this CD, and review
every page of the aircraft's alteration (or repair) history
at your leisure.

INTERNATIONAL
REGISTRY SEARCHES-
The "Capetown Convention"
If your aircraft is type certificated to transport
at least eight persons (including crew) or goods in excess
of 6,063 pounds, or a helicopter certificated to transport
at least five persons or goods in excess of 992 pounds,
or has a turbine or piston engine(s) producing 550 or more
rated takeoff horsepower or 1,750+ lbs thrust, you need
to consider an International
Aircraft Registry search. The International
Registry came into effect in March, 2006, and is an additional
layer of financial interest protection. It does not
take the place of FAA registration.
There is an informative article on the Registry
and regulations here.
