My best guess is..the number is assigned to a plane that presently does not have an airworthiness certificate. I'm a long way from being an expert, but I have done a lot of N number looking over the years as I take a lot of plane photos and then look up the details on the aircraft/owner to go with the photos. I've also looked up the status of all the planes my Dad has flown, based on his logbooks going back to 1949. Planes that are no longer flyable still have their numbers as long as they continue to exist. After all, historically, someone, somewhere may need to track down that plane for whatever reason. Generally the numbers seem to stay with the planes unless the owner takes whatever steps are necessary to change it, and in reality there seem to be few reasons to bother doing that. What that FAA page is telling you is that the number is assigned to a plane, and that that plane is probably not in flyable condition. There could be a zillion reasons for this. The owner may be just holding on to the plane waiting to restore it, it could be in restoration process right now, it could be a wreck the owner decided to save. I could be just sitting on a ramp someplace rotting away. The possibilities are almost endless. I would say, if you really, really REALLY insist on trying to get that number, contact the listed owner and find out what's up. If nothing else, you'd at least know. There were many many numbers I liked. I tried many combinations before hitting on ones available, then reserved my numbers, for two different planes. It costs $10 to reserve a number, and $10 a year to keep it saved until you get it on a plane and get it registered. I know someday I'll be flying NX3746, and it's gonna cost me $10 a year till the plane is done and registered to keep that number!
