I stumbled on this last night. This has been a problem with museum airplanes for a while but this pretty much sucks. I don't remember when Curtis donated the prototype S2 to the EAA Museum but apparently someone kept the N number ''alive'' up until 2017 allowing it to go into the FAA dead file after that. One of the N number pirate companies paid the fee on 01/03/2023 and now it's ''available'' from SHORT-N-NUMBERS in Florida for who knows how much.
This has happened a lot over the years but it's obvious someone or several people over time did keep track of this since it's on record that the lack of keeping the N number updated stopped from the EAA Museum in 2017. I'm almost too pissed off to write this.
