On hold registration questions

The registration is expired. Looks to me like someone didn't re-register when they were supposed to.

I *think* it would work to just submit an application for registration as a new owner but you'd want to verify that. Call the FAA and see what you need to do. Those guys are actually helpful for questions like this.

By the way, the FAA holds the registration for several years after expiration in case whomever owns the plane wants to reactivate it. So as long as you take care of this before the purge date you're not going to lose the registration number.
