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:

AERSALE USA 1 LLC

City CORAL GABLES State FLORIDA
County DADE Zip Code 33134-4541

“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

Oh, that’s right. Lurch is filling in for her now.

They still call her Secretary though. I thought they might provide a plane.
