thats the previous owner, the one who died and who's estate sold the fall victim the airplane... that site info is not the most current apparently (probably takes a while to update... perhaps quarterly).
as for the FAA site not showing the tail number... i dunno, perhaps it might have something to do with it being listed as experimental - beats me.
EDIT:
the canopy in the picture... pilot side, the plexiglass looks jagged compared to the other half.
