Why Hillary Clinton campaign plane landed in Tuscaloosa yesterday

A plane from Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign touched down in Tuscaloosa yesterday but the visit didn't have anything to do with politics.
The Dayton Flyers basketball team traveled to Alabama Monday on a plane used by Clinton during her failed presidential campaign. The Boeing 737-800 with the words "Stronger Together" and "hillaryclinton.com" on the side was leased by the University of Dayton which said it was not aware until the aircraft landed it was a branded Clinton plane.
The university told the Dayton Daily News its charter service has used planes of professional sports teams before but it's the first time the Flyers have flown on a candidate-branded plane.
A photo of the plane was tweeted out by Flyers announcer Larry Hansgen as the team boarded.

I hate to imagine what they found in the pockets in front of their seats.

Imagine if you will, two Planes pull up on the Tarmac.
One of them belonging to Hillary Clinton’s Campaign, the other, Trump Force One.
Which one would these Basketball Players choose to board?

I bet the owner of the plane won’t ever collect from HRC on the rest of the lease. They’re famous for that.

IIRC, her plane was rented. Sounds like a sublet.

The Hillary Clinton Campaign jet was a used rental with an adjusted seating and moveable bulkhead layout.
Check of the tailnumber revealed that ownship of that plane did not change hands. "Million Air" performed the interior mods which received the big PR Hooha photo op implying that Hillary owned her own jet to parry Trump's actual ownership. Just another media " not really a lie" effort to bolster the bish.
