The airplane example comes up in the case of lots of other chattels,
particularly cars. In Ontario, it is easy to search for registrations
under the Personal Property Security Act if you are buying a motor
vehicle, since registrations include the vehicle serial number. I
don't know about other jurisdictions. And even with other items,
you can always search under the vendor's name. Some jurisdictions
offer preferential protection to a purchaser from a dealer who was
selling in the ordinary course of business; thus, you might be protected
when buying a car from a car dealer, where you wouldn't get the same
protection when buying it privately.
