Gap detected: 2025-05-06 to 2026-04-08

One or more potential indicators of a serious maintenance incident are present in flight logs: disruption to typical flight patterns followed by flight profiles consistent with test flights or maintenance ferry activities. These signals are not conclusive evidence of damage and can have benign explanations — a gap may reflect weather, inspection scheduling, or legitimate maintenance — but the post-gap flight signatures warrant asking the seller directly. Contact support for a detailed extract of flight records (automated report coming soon).

Specific signals: Post-gap signals detected: test flight, ferry flight, utilization dip ✓, non-home departure ✓.

✓

Heavy training pattern not detected

Flight utilization is consistent with normal operations. Short-return flight density does not indicate intensive training use.

✓

'Flown-to-sell' pattern not detected

Activity history shows consistent operational patterns without the dormancy-followed-by-spike signature.

Geo-contextual dormancy

Dormancy threshold exceeded

This aircraft is based in MN — a moderate humidity with seasonal temperature swings climate. The longest recorded dormancy gap is 336 days, which exceeds the 120-day flag threshold for this region.

Seasonal temperature cycling — cold winters, warm summers — causes rubber seals and gaskets to harden and crack over time, especially in unheated hangars or tie-down storage. Moderate humidity adds mild corrosion risk to fuel and brake systems.

§4Pre-buy inspection checklist for your A&P/IA

Bring this checklist to your inspection and ask for objective evidence in the airframe, engine, propeller, and logbooks.

Case-specific follow-up: May 6, 2025 (NTSB CEN25LA189)

1.Have the A&P/IA cross-check all major repairs against airframe logs, 337s, and applicable structural repair data.
2.Ask whether any prior damage area should receive borescope, NDT, or additional teardown before closing the inspection.

Airframe and records

1.Confirm complete airframe log continuity for N202FD; identify any missing years, gaps, or reconstructed entries.
2.Verify AD compliance status with method of compliance, recurring intervals, and next due dates.
3.Check for corrosion hotspots (spar carry-through, tailcone, belly, control surfaces) and document severity with photos.
4.Inspect evidence of previous hard landings, gear-overstress events, or skin buckling around gear attach points.
5.Validate all STCs and field approvals installed on the aircraft have matching paperwork and ICA updates.

Engine, propeller, and systems

1.Record current engine total time, SMOH, and compare to recommended TBO with supporting log entries.
2.Review cylinder health trend (compressions, borescope findings, oil analysis if available) instead of single-point readings only.
3.Confirm propeller overhaul status, calendar limits, and any prop-strike teardown documentation.
4.Inspect fuel system for contamination, leaks, selector operation, and evidence of long-term inactivity damage.
5.Verify magneto/ignition timing checks, baffle condition, and engine mount/firewall condition.

Operational readiness and decision gate

1.Ask the A&P/IA to list airworthiness-critical discrepancies separately from cosmetic or discretionary fixes.
2.Get a written estimate and parts lead time for each discrepancy so total first-year cost can be modeled.
3.Confirm whether a post-maintenance test flight profile is required before ferry or delivery.
4.Ask: based on findings, would you personally proceed at current price, renegotiate, or walk away—and why?

§5What this report does not cover

Logbook review. Annual inspections, 100-hour inspections, AD compliance, engine SMOH/TBO, and equipment service history live in the aircraft logbooks and are not included in this report.

Hands-on inspection. Compression checks, gear rigging, control surface play, and corrosion assessment require a qualified A&P/IA with the aircraft in hand. This report is the homework before the inspection.

Title and lien search. Verify ownership, encumbrances, and clear title through Aerospace Reports or your aviation attorney.

Unreported damage. Minor events that didn’t trigger an NTSB report may exist in the logbooks and aren’t visible here.

This report is a research aid based on public records. It is not a substitute for a pre-buy inspection by a qualified A&P/IA mechanic. It does not constitute legal, financial, or airworthiness advice.

The presence of incidents does not indicate a problem. The absence of findings does not guarantee airworthiness. Aircraft history reports inform decisions — they don’t replace them.
