There's only one celebrity that comes to mind. Wouldn't happen to be named "John", would he? Seems interesting enough, but from what was written on wikipedia, why would any celebs have interest in the government's dirty work with prisoners?

They don't! I was under the impression that this plane belonged to, let's call him "John". I didn't know anything about the torture jet thing until I googled the tail #.

Because the last time 2004 it was renamed N44982, and ownership was transferred to Bayard Foreign Marketing of Portland, Oregon., perhaps As of January 20, 2006, the Registered Owner of the Aircraft is N126CH INC, 2930 BISCAYNE BLVD, MIAMI, FLORIDA 33137-4122 (Source: FAA) that is when it became to the ownership of the private person.

It would be interesting to find out more on these change and renaming.

WELL, the story doesn't end there...


Here's what I thought maybe you guys would be more interested in.


BTW, I wrote this down word for word in my notebook maybe 20 mins after it happened.

On 1-5 day in basic at Great Lakes, I was in a class where we were learning about different types of US NAVY COMBAT AIRCRAFT AND THIER DESIGNATION NUMBERS / LETTERS. After we went through the entire list, I grew some gonads and raised my hand, well aware that I'd be sweating hard for the next few hours however content that I would walk away a bit more knowledgeable. In the room were the Petty Officer and Master Chief.

PO - "Stand Up Recruit!"

ME - tands quick

ME - "PETTY OFFICER! SEAMAN RECRUIT FORCE RESPECTFULLY
REQUESTING PERMISSION TO ADDRESS THE MASTER CHIEF!"
(there was a cold, dead, silence.)

MC - "GO, NOW!"

(now I was terrified as I had to ask this question LOUDLY in the face of the man who was the key to whether I got through boot camp or boot camp got through me)

ME - "MASTER CHIEF SIR! HOW WOULD SEAMAN RECRUIT FORCE CLASSIFY A MILITARY CRAFT WHOSE DESIGNATION 'NINA FOUR FOUR NINER EIGHT TWO' ASSUMES A CIVILIAN VEHICLE SIR!"

At this point, I was sweating as if I had already hit the deck and I could feel my pulse in my eye sockets.

He slowly walked up to me (REALLY SLOWLY) and stopped 2 inches from my face. I thought he was going to scream in my face until my scalp peeled away. Instead, he said in a very soft, childlike innocent voice lightly infused with gung ho,

"Seaman Recruit Force, being reasonably jarred by such a situation, would carry on assuming it was a civilian vehicle as it clearly displayed unless Seaman Recruit Force's goal here at recruit training command was to join the enemy Seaman Recruit Force is that your goal here SEAMAN RECRUIT FORCE TO AID ENEMY FORCES IN THE DESTRUCTION OF YOUR FAMILY SEAMAN RECRUIT FORCE? YOUR BROTHERS SEAMAN RECRUIT FORCE???YOUR DAUGHTERS AND YOUR OWN MOTHER SEAMAN RECRUIT FORCE??????????? IS THAT YOUR GOAL SEAMAN RECRUIT FORCE?!?!?!!"

ME - "NO SIR MASTER CHIEF!" (waiting for the asskicking of all time)

MC - (sweating profusely from his rage, staring at me with primeval stare)
".......of course not. You don't strike me as the type.... Seaman Recruit Force."

(And still as he was walking away, hands rested behind his back)

MC - "............Force....Force.....Force.....Seaman Recruit Force.........."

That's probably not totally out of the question. From what I hear, it has been back at least once, although I was told the paint is different, not just the numbers. Credible source I assure you, but I won't vouch for the vision!

I always keep an eye out for it.

Interesting encounter you go there with your Master Chief.

I guess as long as you are in the military service is better to stop getting to snoopy and whatever you are to do better keep it to yourself.

Until is a better time for disclosures.

Many people in the military likes to keep records of their experiences and then one day when their careers are finished and over with, they will comeback and write and research about it.

Such is my case... medical discharge for an injury during active duty.

I'm sorry, but I guess I'm the kind of person who would rather die knowing than live wondering.

Well if you are not in duty anymore is not reason why researching will no work for you.

And thanks for serving our nation sorry to hear that you got an injury.

I imagine that is people In ATS that will love to read what you find. like me.

Yes, I imagine it would take some guff to ask a question that "shouldn't be asked." I have a family member who used to do data recovery and destruction for the USAF. He said we would be terrified to know some of the truths of the US gov't actions. Sometimes you need extreme measures to get the job done. I'm not condoning flying someone off to Egypt to be killed just for the hell of it, but there's a reason for all things.

I stumbled across this.. St. Simons is my hometown i grew up in the trailer park next to the airport i was out of town during the G8 summit but however i do know for a fact that John Travolta flies to that airport all the time and goes to eat at the Cloister on Sea Island ( no i have not met him or seen him but i've seen his plane and a former neighbor worked at the Cloister) Leo DiCaprio has been seen eating there as well.
