The public federal record on N369FC, 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 Ferguson and Sons Construction LLC, an LLC, certificate issued October 15, 2022, expires October 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated October 9, 2025, 44 years after the 1981 manufacture year.

The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 610983D for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
No other airframe has carried N369FC according to the deregistered file. [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]
