No. It isn't displayed to controllers, but a ModeS transponder does transmit its serial number which can be read using tools not available to the controller. The serial number does translate to the N number so long as the transponder is correctly registered. As of now this technology hasn't been implemented to the controller, nor is the serial number recorded in the continuous data recording archive. Doesn't the system process the flightid field? Or isn't that transmitted?
