Gretchen Whitmer Story Unravels: Florida Plane Not Authorized for Charter Flights
Breitbart ^ | May 17 2021 | KYLE OLSON

Posted on 05/17/2021 11:27:13 PM PDT by knighthawk

The private jet Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) said she chartered for her secret trip to Florida in March is not approved to be chartered, the FAA told the Detroit Free Press Monday.

The new problems arose when Whitmer’s chief of staff, Joanne Huls, attempted to explain away the flight Friday by saying a related 501(c)(4) so-called dark money group paid for the flight.

It was determined the cost of the roundtrip was $27,521, and Whitmer personally reimbursed the fund just $855 for her seat. It was not clear how they arrived at either figure.

You have notify Florida law enforcement officials before you visit the state? I never did that.

Rules don’t apply to Democrats. Even if it turns out she broke every law in the books nothing would come of it. Cuomo slaughtered thousands of seniors, sexually assaulted his staff and is still laughing all the way to his next term or big federal government job. You think Whitmer is worried over a trip to Florida?

Using my math....there has to be 32.1 people onboard to pay for the flight. So the question is...is there even room for 32.1 people on this jet?

They just can’t help themselves - they have to cheat to validate their existence.

Hey - they were dropping off a six-pack of Vernor’s for the company CEO and Titsmer was lucky enough to hear about the flight...

She’s a governor, perhaps a security situation that state law enforcement agencies need to know when one comes visiting. Otherwise, who cares?

The was riding pretty high because she gave the first Democrat response to the SOTU address that didn't suck. Then she became a tyrant in her state.

Elizabeth Isham Cory, a spokeswoman for the FAA, told the Free Press “companies that operate charter flights must have a Part 135 certificate” from the agency. Air Eagle, LLC, a company owned by three Detroit-area businessmen, “does not have a Part 135 certificate,” according to Cory.

Far 135 is not joke, after seeing people study it and hearing about it, I know that much.

But I wonder about wiggle room. How many of these Corp types will fly someone in dire need of a treatment for a disease however they do not charge. I flew on a Corp Jet (one of the "G" series, sweet!) for fun based activity where we we voluteering our time at another location. It just so happens the Pilot was also part of this annual event and we all re-imbursed said Corp for the cost of the flight, it wasn't a commerical charter for $ if you will. And, it wasn't cheap, it was the cost of a commerical flight and then some, for what was less than an Hour & 1/2 for the round trip. However it beat the heck out of an almost 8 hr drive one way.

I am not sticking up for her, I am in MI and the last year & 1/2 has been a pile of suckage in her socialist state. However I wonder if her wiggle room is parental care. I did so with my eldery parents before they past on, but I had to go in a airborne tubes w/ over 100 others, no special treatment to get back to where they were.

OMG----Whitmer used advanced math? I smell systemic racism.

Gretchen Dearest is well schooled in the “New Math”, which does not have to have correct answers, only ones that fit the current narrative. None of this rigid thinking for her.
