From the FAA registry file of October 24, 2026. ADs below are matched by the registry's airframe and engine model codes. They may apply; each AD's applicability can narrow it by serial number, part number or installed equipment. This is not a compliance determination. The registry lists only the engine series, so ADs for every CFM International CFM56-7B27E model are included.

## NTSB investigations

None matched to N712JM.

## NTSB investigations on N712JM not matched to an aircraft (1)

From the NTSB's public API. Aircraft are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.

- [NTSB CHI94LA304](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI94LA304), Aug 29, 1994: Cessna 210L (N712JM), Orr, MN, substantial damage. Probable cause: IMPROPER PLANNING/DECISION BY THE PILOT, WHICH RESULTED IN FUEL EXHAUSTION DUE TO AN INADEQUATE SUPPLY OF FUEL. FACTORS RELATING TO THE ACCIDENT WERE: THE FALSE INDICATION FROM THE FUEL QUANTITY…

## FAA accident and incident reports

None matched to N712JM.

## Reports on N712JM not matched to an aircraft (1)

They name N712JM, but no registry record covers the date, the aircraft registered then was built later, or the report describes another aircraft.

- [Accident 19940829024039A](https://openairdocs.org/incident/19940829024039A), Aug 29, 1994: Cessna 210L (N712JM), Orr, MN, Substantial damage. Engine quit landed short in a swamp fuel tanks empty.

## Service difficulty reports

None filed for this aircraft. Matched to this aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model.

## STCs that may be installed (OpenAirDocs) (1)

Approved for this aircraft's airframe or engine model, in force first, then newest. The registry doesn't record which STCs an aircraft has; its records do.
