Tools

faa_get_aircraft_type
Decode a 7-character FAA manufacturer/model/series code to aircraft specifications — manufacturer, model, aircraft category, aircraft type, engine type, number of engines, number of seats, weight class, cruise speed, and type-certificate data sheet/holder. Use faa_search_aircraft_types first to discover a code by manufacturer or model name.
shallow
faa_get_registration_status
Resolve whether a US civil aircraft N-number is active, deregistered, reserved, or unknown, including the available registration and airworthiness status. Use this rather than faa_lookup_registration when a number may be inactive. A number that was never issued returns recordType "unknown" — a valid, informative answer, not an error. Accepts "N12345" or "12345".
shallow
faa_lookup_registration
Decode one US civil aircraft N-number to its full registration record — aircraft make/model, engine, year manufactured, airworthiness, registration status, Mode S (ICAO 24-bit) code, and registered owner (when owner-PII redaction is off). Accepts "N12345" or "12345" (the leading N is optional). Returns ownerRedacted: true when owner details were withheld. A number that is known but inactive (deregistered or reserved) is not found here — use faa_get_registration_status for its current state.
shallow
faa_search_aircraft_types
Search FAA aircraft types by manufacturer/model name, aircraft type code, or category code to discover 7-character manufacturer/model/series codes and browse specifications. Use this before faa_get_aircraft_type to find a code by name. At least one filter is required. Every response reports totalCount (all matches, not just this page); when more remain, it returns nextOffset — pass it back as offset to page forward.
shallow
faa_search_registrations
Search active US civil aircraft registrations by owner name, make/model, state, aircraft type, or Mode S (hex) code. Returns decoded summaries with N-numbers to drill into via faa_lookup_registration. At least one filter is required. Owner-name search is unavailable when this deployment redacts owner PII — search by make/model, state, aircraft type, or Mode S code instead. Every response reports totalCount (all matches, not just this page); when more remain, it returns nextOffset — pass it back as offset to page forward.
