Also, while not directly related to this case, Daniel Hopsicker wrote this article on Barry Seal back when he was assassinated. www.idfiles.com...

It's a rather interesting read.

For more on the Daddy Bush, Clinton, and Reagons, Mena Arkansas cocaine racket...
see here.

IMO It isn't just coincidence that Clinton came from behind, to be elected president... He had connections... ones that were never revealed by the MSM.

Now all those chummy tsunami advertisements make sense, dont they?Mena, where the scoundrels meet under the moonlight.

There seem to be a large amount of SkyWay subsidiaries. Brent Kovar founded SkyWay Global in 2000 and it merged with SkyWay Communications Holding. His biography when the two merged said SkyWay Global was a broadband company.

However, this article from 2004 claims it's a security company:

Martinez spent $1.5-million in the past week, and McCollum said he spent $800,000. Martinez also has the trappings of a well-financed modern campaign. His two-day "American Dream Tour" began in a 45-foot motor coach used by rock groups and country music stars, and switched to a DC-9 charter jet owned by Skyway Global, a Clearwater security firm whose owners are Martinez supporters.

www.sptimes.com...

And Mel Martinez' campaign website says the same and even includes a picture of "the monitoring room at Skyway global, a homeland security firm": Link

I love this thread, and what I would be interested in knowing is

HOW IS THE MONEY SPENT? What projects and operations is this drug money funding- what is actually bought with those millions? This plane was currently funding operations going on right now, so what is the ends to this means? Greed for greed's sake is not anywhere as interesting as greed for power's sake.

I also found a good discussion here:

groups.yahoo.com...

SPECIAL REPORT. Porter Goss's Cocaine Import Agency (CIA) has links to "Al
Qaeda" and Saudis.


Last year, WMR reported on links between the Saudi Royal Family and CIA
proprietary airline companies involved in cocaine smuggling. On April 10,
Mexican police, acting on a tip from INTERPOL, seized a DC-9 aircraft carrying
5.5 tons of cocaine with an estimated street value of $100 million. The
U.S.-registered plane was en route from Caracas, Venezuela, which, according to
French intelligence, is a known hub for cocaine shipments from Colombia to Saudi
Arabia (see article below).



The DC-9 (registration number N900SA) made an emergency landing at Ciudad del
Carmen in Campeche state. A Falcon aircraft that arrived at Ciudad del Carmen
from Toluca airport in Mexico state in advance of the arrival of the DC-9 was
also seized. The cocaine was contained in 128 suitcases. The Mexican police
later claimed the unidentified DC-9's pilot managed to escape. However, the
police did arrest the co-pilot.




The DC-9 was painted in the familiar blue and white colors of the U.S.
Transportation Security Administration with am official-looking seal with an
American eagle bearing the inscription: "Sky Way Aircraft -

Protection of America's Skies." The registered owner of the aircraft is:


Royal Sons Inc., 15875 Fairchild Drive, Clearwater, Florida. On April 5, 2006,
the plane flew from St. Petersburg/Clearwater International to Simon Bolivar
International in Caracas. "Sky Ways" (see article below) has also been linked to
the Saudi government and Bush family/CIA activities. Royal Sons, the name of
which may indicate the involvement of Saudi princes, such as the
cocaine-transporting Prince Nayif, cited below, also maintained an office at 224
East Airport Ave., Venice, Florida, at the same time lead hijacker Mohammad Atta
and Marwan al-


Shehhi were training at Huffman Aviation, which was located near by at 400
East Airport Avenue. Two years before 911, Venice was also the subject of
intensive intelligence operations by Israeli intelligence agents masquerading as
"art students." Not surprisingly in light of Saudi involvement with cocaine
smuggling, the activities of the Israelis drew the particular attention of the
U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), which had Venice airport under
surveillance and later prepared a lengthy report on the activities of the
Israelis. Atta and al Shehhi also used Clearwater airport for practice take-off
and landings during off-peak hours.

The full artcile can be found at the above link and gets much more detailed.

I'd love to see Porter Goss go down with this ship. He's already getting tied into the Duke Cunningham/Defense Dept scandals:

Wilkes was deep into the CIA -- particularly with his high school pal, Dusty Foggo, who Porter Goss made the number three man at the Agency -- as well as being very deep into Duke Cunningham. And the stories that are swirling now are not just about things that happened in the last few years -- they stretch back into the early 1990s.

I do not know if this was already posted or even asked about, but according to this Venezuelan page the DC9's pilot name is Alberto Damiani.

But they also say that the pilot who landed the plane was the one all other sources say was the co-pilot, Miguel Vázquez Guerra.

Most sources say that the co-pilot was a Colombian, but this site says he is a Venezuelan.

In this page they say that the Falcon has the license number XB-IYK that identifies it as a Mexican registered plane.

The two men who came on the Falcon and tried to get an extension of the flight plan to get the DC9 to the Mexican capital, are Mexicans, Fernando Poot Pérez and Marco Antonio Pérez, according to this.

They also say that the DC9 had no passengers and not even seats but was listed as a turist's flight.

This page is the bulletin issued by the Procuraduría General de la República and is a good summary of the case. In that they also say that a Orlando Flores Rueda was also arrested because he was identified as someone who was transported by the Falcon previously to attempt to get the DC9 to Mexico City.

All the above links are in Spanish.

This is a summary of what I have discovered so far.

In 1997, Master Communications Corporation was founded as a sort of Dot Com Company creator. Publicly, at least. In 1999, it changed its name to i-Incubator.com, Inc. It had two corporate officers, Jamee Freeman (later known as Jamee Kalimi) and Javier Aguero. The company soon began creating many subsidiary corporations. i-RealityAuction.com, Inc.; i-CarAuction.com, Inc.; i-AntiqueAuction.com, Inc.; i-AeroBids.com, Inc.; and finally i-Teleco.com, Inc., which began as Mastertel, Inc. and ended up as SkyWay Communications Holding Corporation in 2003.

It is worth noting that none of these subsidiaries have ever become successful public businesses and none appear to have had any employees other than Ms. Kalimi and occasional other corporate officers.

Meanwhile, Brent Kovar and his father, Glenn Kovar, were running several other corporations with the SkyWay name, both in Florida and Nevada. SkyWay Global, which has been referred to as both an internet service provider and a private security firm, and Sky Way Aircraft.

In June, 2003, SkyWay Communications Holding Corporation merged with Sky Way Aircraft. Jamee Kalimi resigned and the Sky Way Aircraft officers were appointed to the board of directors and took over as the officers of SkyWay Communications. James Kent became CEO and Brent Kovar President and Chief Technology Officer.

In January 2004, SkyWay Communications acquired a $1.5 Million loan with Royal Sons Motor Yacht Sales to purchase a DC-9 with the serial number 45731, registration N120NE, claiming it would be used to develop their airborne communications technology. This is not the aircraft that was captured carrying drugs.

On November 27, 2004, a Beechcraft King Air was found in Nicaragua. This aircraft had been registered to Sky Way Aircraft just over one month previously, before it was sold and exported to Venezuela on October 18, 2004. It, however, carried a false tail number, N168D, which actually is an aircraft that belongs to Devon Holding & Leasing, Inc.

Devon Holding & Leasing owns four identical aircraft, N196D, N187D, N219D, and N168D, and they have been seen, both separately and together, traveling between the United States and various hotspots in the world. They are, in all likelihood, one of the numerous front corporations which owns and operates the CIA's Rendition Airways fleet. Article on GlobalSecurity mentioning Devon Holding & Leasing as a CIA front.

In December 2004, a shareholder of SkyWay Communications filed a lawsuit against them, charging that they were taking investments and spending the money on things for themselves and that they had never had any of the technology they claimed to be developing. Also in December, they traded 28 million shares of SkyWay stock with duPont Investment Fund 57289, Inc. for the DC-9 with the serial number 45775, registration N900SA. The drug airplane.

In April 2005, the Kovars and James Kent resigned from the board, Ray Powers was appointed to the board, then resigned four days later after a judge ordered SkyWay to cease movement of assets. On June 14, 2005, SkyWay Communications filed for bankruptcy.

I'm getting confused and frustrated at the complexity of all the links between various companies, but I'm slowly trying to work through it and I am compiling a fully-sourced collection of everything connected. As soon as it gets into a more complete state, I'm going to make it fully public online to help everyone else in their research and will continue adding to it as information becomes available.

Good luck to everyone else working on this, and thank you for the effort you have been putting in.

Daniel Hopsicker has written a new article with some interesting and very helpful new information. It would appear he has interviewed Frederic Geffon, the President of Royal Sons.

Link to full article.

Firstly, he has confirmed that the SkyWay Aircraft seal was NOT on the aircraft at the time of capture.

Moreover, he told us, the phony Homeland Security Seal was no longer on it, a statement confirmed by photos of the plane taken in Mexico after its interdiction...

Some other interesting things of note:

Frederic Geffon from Royal Sons LLC, the Florida air charter company which the FAA listed as the last registered American owner of "Cocaine One," was happy to talk about Brent and Glenn Kovar's most recent (last year) bankruptcy.

"Their company is a scam and he’s a scammer. I got sold a bill of goods about his stock. Everybody out here at the (Clearwater-St. Pete International) airport invested with him, and we all lost it all."

“I had nothing at all to do with the plane by the time it was busted,” Geffon told us. “I sold it three weeks ago (in late March) to an aircraft broker, on behalf of someone in Venezuela.”

“The airplane was out of my name,” he continued. “I sent a blank form to the title company. Another airplane broker was also involved. It was delisted on the same day as the incident."

...

Asked the name of the Venezuelan buyer he sold the plane to, he responded, “I’m not at liberty to say. I’ve been asked not to say to whom the plane was sold.”

Who asked him not to say?

“I’ve been asked not to say who asked me not to say,” he said.

Just wanted to clarify that he is incorrect in saying it was delisted on the same day as the seizure. It was delisted two days after.

“Glenn Kovar told everybody he was with the CIA,” Frederic Geffon said. “A lot of people at the airport believed him, and became investors in his scam.”

And for the last quotes, I'd like to point out two errors in Hopsicker's article.

SkyWay Aircraft was the only tangible asset of SkyWay Communications Holding, a firm whose existence served as nothing more than a meager excuse to run a penny stock fraud scam, successfully relieving investors of over $40 million dollars in only three years.

This one I'm fairly sure is an error. Sky Way Aircraft was one of several subsidiaries of SkyWay Communications Holding Corporation, according to the records I have read. At the very least, there was also SkyWay Global, unless there were additional mergers of subsidiaries that I missed.

The busted DC9, dubbed "Cocaine One" in an earlier story, had an identical twin, a second airliner painted with the same distinctive blue-and-white-with-gold-trim of official U.S. aircraft, the MadCowMorningNews can reveal exclusively, and under the control of the same company.

...

During 2003 and 2004, both DC9's controlled by the firm (N-numbers N900SA & N120NE) boasted an official-looking Seal beside the door...

He is correct to say that N900SA and N120NE both had the Sky Way Aircraft seal, but N120NE is not and has not been painted in blue, white and gold unless that happened in the past month and a half, as this photograph from March 15, 2006 can confirm.

Now, about the other things he said... Glenn Kovar bragged he was CIA. Glenn and Brent Kovar are known scammers, having done this same sort of scam in the past. To me, this could mean one of several things:

1. The CIA hires that sort of person to run certain front organizations as they're not easy to link back to them and they have experience keeping a scam running. However, perhaps Glenn Kovar, a man who obviously likes power and money, is also a boaster, and couldn't keep his mouth shut about his connections to the CIA. So they burned his operation and let them get exposed as a fraud.
   
   
2. They are just that... scammers. And scammers lie. No connection to the CIA.
   

There other possibilities as well, I'm sure. I am certainly tempted to believe that at least SkyWay and the Kovars have a connection with the CIA, because of the capture of the other aircraft that had been registered to SkyWay just weeks before. It sounds like that was the same tactic used here, but it didn't work out quite like they wanted. (Ideally, the aircraft would've been de-registered weeks before the capture, not days after.)

Edit: One more thing...

He includes a photograph that he says shows N900SA without the Sky Way Aircraft seal after capture in Mexico. Firstly, the area where the seal would be located is blocked by something on each of those aircraft. Secondly, none of the aircraft in that picture are a DC-9. And thirdly, the name of the file is "!!stpeteb.jpg" and the sign is in English. Clearly this photograph was not taken in Mexico after the capture and shows nothing relevant that I can see. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he made a mistake and put the wrong image up.

Pilot escaped ?! So was his name Agent Houdini?

After Tenet resigned, Skull and Bones Peter J. Goss was nominated CIA Director and perhaps these new clandestine CIA cocaine and heroin operations started flowing. Goss has represented the 14th congressional district of Florida, fluent in spanish and did extensive work as a CIA agent in Latin America and the Caribbean while based out of Miami. Coincidence?

Lots of name dropping and info in this story:



The plane seems to be owned by a joint partnership between the Saudis and the US.

From above story:
The DC-9 seized by Mexico was previously owned by a partnership of Royal Sons and Skyway Communications Holding Corp. (Symbol: SWYCQ) of 6021, 142nd Avenue North Clearwater, Florida. SWYCQ's web site states, "SWYC was founded in 2000 by Mr. Brent Kovar. SWYC’s focus includes in-flight wireless Homeland Security and In-flight Entertainment (IFE) service." In 2003, then-House Majority Leader Tom DeLay appointed Kovar as Honorary Chairman of the Business Advisory Council of the National Republican Congressional Committee. According to the Securities and Exchange Commission's EDGAR database, "Kovar has been President and Director of Sky Way Aircraft since inception.

9/11 Hijacker Mohammed Atta al-Sayed and other hijackers trained at Clearwater Airpark.
