The public federal record on N3097K, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.
Valid registration to Croom Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued February 15, 2017, expires February 28, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Restricted certificate for agriculture and pest control, dated July 31, 1989, consistent with the 1989 manufacture year. [1]

N3097K was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Culver V (serial 316, cancelled June 27, 1950). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N3097K. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
