Republic Aviation aircraft in the FAA registry
The Republic Aviation Corporation was an American aircraft manufacturer based in Farmingdale, New York, on Long Island. Originally known as the Seversky Aircraft Company, the company produced iconic military aircraft such as the P-47 Thunderbolt, F-84 Thunderjet, and F-105 Thunderchief. Today, aviation enthusiasts and buyers can track the surviving fleet through the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) registry.
Registered Fleet Overview
Data from the FAA registry, current as of 2026-10-16, lists 146 valid registrations under the manufacturer name "REPUBLIC." All 146 registered aircraft are fixed-wing, single-engine models. The fleet is dominated by reciprocating engines, with 144 aircraft using this type, while two aircraft are powered by turbojet engines. In terms of airworthiness, 118 aircraft hold a standard class certificate, and 17 are registered under the experimental class.
Models and Production Years
The registry contains seven distinct models. The Republic RC-3 is the most common variant, with 122 aircraft registered. These were built between 1946 and 1947 and seat four passengers. The P-47D follows with 10 registrations, built between 1944 and 1945, seating one pilot. Other registered models include the RC-3-1 (6 aircraft), P-47 (4 aircraft), F84G (2 aircraft), and AT12 (1 aircraft).
Most of these aircraft were built between 1942 and 1947, with half of the fleet manufactured in 1947 or earlier. Geographically, California holds the highest number of registrations with 17 aircraft, followed by Florida with 15, and Washington with 12.
Type Certificates and Records
Each model in the registry has its own dedicated page containing specifications and the type certificate data sheet (TCDS). For example, TCDS A-769, held by Sky Enterprises Inc., covers the RC-3 model. Every aircraft in the registry maintains a specific registration record by N-number, allowing for precise identification of individual airframes. This data provides a clear view of the surviving Republic Aviation models currently active in the United States.
