  • Mystery aircraft with foreign reg, looking for info

    I was at my local airport today and spotted this aircraft (Looks like a Piper) registered JA4006. It stuck out to me because it is rare to see a Japanese registered aircraft overseas in Canada. I tried to find it on many websites but they all came back blank. Does anyone know where I can find any info on it?
    Cheers

    Hi, this aircraft seems to have suffered an accident on 24 February 2004, where the pilot performed an emergency landing at sea near Kobe, Japan after engine trouble. There is a brief summary at Japan Transportation Safety Board website (Japanese only): https://jtsb.mlit.go.jp/jtsb/aircraf...l2.php?id=1782
    The accident report is also available in Japanese: https://www.mlit.go.jp/jtsb/aircraft...2-4-JA4006.pdf
    It states the aircraft details as follows:
    Reg: JA4006
    Type: PA-32R-301T
    C/N: 32R-8429023

    There is a post-accident photo of the aircraft at the end of the report PDF.
