Ever since Loretta Lynch met Bill Clinton at the end of June this year, I've been really bothered by something. Compelled to meditate on it and figure it out.
I'm having some trouble, and need to ask for Freerepublic input.
Loretta Lynch met Bill Clinton on the tarmac, and Bill entered Loretta's FBI-owned Government plane. There are reports of them entering a 3rd plane but nothing seems to support that claim.
Now that we're all caught up, I'll let you know that I've been wracking my brain on this one. But one of the more sublime enigmas came more recently. After Hillary's September 11th .. Death, I guess. I mean the woman looked like she died. She was talking to the press aboard another jet.
I'm reminded of Hillary's photos aboard "Dan Bilzerian's private jet". More about that in a moment.
The September 12th jet was a piece of junk. Seriously. It was a retired passenger jet. And not even a recently retired one. Where did this jet come from ? How did she go from Bilzerian's jet, to this boneyard candidate while Slick Willy is cruising around a private jet.. like.. Private jet ... on his own ATC and traffic terms ?
I've been going movie-style insane on this. So much so that I've been looking at jets. I've been watching videos of them. Learning everything I could. I learned a bit about buying a jet, and owning a jet.
A Jet is stupid expensive. When I say "Stupid expensive" a private jet is one of those things that can never, ever solve a problem efficiently. Buying a jet for your own use is outlandishly foolish. The costs - even outside of the cost of crew - are staggering. A private jet is a blackhole of money for the foolish rich.
But I learned that when you buy a jet, you can offset costs by loaning it out, or leasing it out to millionaire clubs that share jets. It ensures that a jet is available to you, albeit perhaps not your jet. That is how Hillary wound up in "Bilzerian's" jet. He can't afford this thing hanging out hemorrhaging money so he makes it available to be flown and rented out - basically.
Even Trump does the same thing. His 737 has been flown around the country to help people not because people have a direct line to his office, and he doesn't personally dispatch that jet to far off lands to help struggling parents get their sick kids from coast to coast. I'm sure he would if he could, but that's not how those transactions go down. You don't get to call him up, and he doesn't just send his 737 (with costs running in the $25k+ per hour) out willy nilly. I mean, again - I'm sure he would were he asked to but his plane was simply available for that service - at that time. Trump doesn't hemorrhage money.
Why is Hillary on this really, really old passenger jet now ? Was she kicked out of their private jet club ? Did she have to buy another jet ? Is her jet under observation ? Is it bugged ? The Clinton foundation either has enough for a fleet of it's own plane, or it can't afford the 20 million necessary to pick up a Gulfstream.
Executive pilots - What say you ? Did Bill do something that got the Clintons kicked out of the executive airplane club ?
In addition: She’s totally aware of renting private jets. She has rented the same plane that Bilzerian was seen in / might actually own.
Her campaign has been, according to both sides, the weakest, most nof*cksgiven campaign in recent memory. What gives ?
If they are so worried about Trump, which they should be, why are they ignoring calls from their own party to step it up a notch ?
It’s like those in the know already know the winner, so they don’t care. It suggests a nightmare scenario for the whole world: Hillary is going to steal the election.
FWIW
As of this date, the tail number N881XA, visible in the Clinton promo remains registered to:

“Trump is the Americanized, Ellis-Island version of the family name, which is Drumpf.”
Many surnames have been changed. Often it was to make the names seem more American, which usually meant more “English-like.”
But standardized spelling in various languages, is fairly recent.
Within my immediate family, my own surname changed twice upon reaching America, and my mother’s maiden name changed between brothers, fathers etc.
Thanks for the explanation.maybe we should start referring to all visible Lefties by their real names.......Jon Stewart as ‘Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz’, etc.
Dunno - guess you’ll have to ask her. Maybe the plane was donated by someone she has something against them? Maybe cheaper to lease/rent? It could be one of those maxed out cycle planes, somewhere around 90,000 cycles or more? I wouldn’t want to fly in one; do you remember Hawaiian Air when the whole top of the plane blew off and sucked out a CA?
Oh, great catch - I was looking for the tail number. Would have cleared a lot up.
So it is a rental. And it’s a rental based on size over luxury, as the press pool needs to be shuttled as well. I’m sure that while the jet is old, it’s well maintained and airworthy. The seating on it suggests it’s real age - Those seats haven’t put in a plane in decades.
Just such junk for her. Obama had a way better plane that was his - at least the lease allowed for him to repaint it.
This is all very telling. What it tells is beyond me, but there is something strange in Denmark.
You’re right Trump does not rent out his 757-200
Total hourly cost is around 10,000 with roughly half to jet fuel
Hilary’s rented Falcon is around 6000/hr
Trump can afford the indulgence
My dad owned all sorts of planes up to Navajos and King Airs but his last personal birds were Beechcraft Dukes which were the Corvette ZR1 of their day......very fast and high ceiling turboprop
But it too was an indulgence he could afford
He could a been functional with some cheaper Piper or Cessna
That’s what planes are
A balance between cost and practicality and performance and even prestige but it boils down to what one can afford
Former Sec State.
Oh, that’s right. Lurch is filling in for her now.
They still call her Secretary though. I thought they might provide a plane.
