I've used the AOPA service several times. And found things that
caused me to walk away from the deal on occasion. They can get the info together for you fairly quickly and I think it's important that all this stuff be looked at before buying a plane. "K. Ari Krupnikov" wrote in message ...

But you can look up an N number on NTSB before you ever get to meet the owner - saves time. Of course if an accident was never reported, NTSB won't have it either. also, a title search company may also get all of the accident reports or form 337s filed on that aircraft. They should also be able to track N# changes, as well as reporting a clean title. AOPA offers this service to it's members. I'm a member, and I've been thinking about using that service. I'm not entirely sure what they do that a mortal can't. Do they have access to some government databases that are not available to the public? Also, do you know how long it takes for them to do their search? Ari. -- Elections only count as free and trials as fair if you can lose money betting on the outcome. |
