What makes you guys think that only ONE personal jet is being used?

Because Gerald Ford and Orsini know it just wouldn't be fair to us if they tricked up like that

Nothing. All we know is at least one plane was used at one time and do not know if it is being used still and even if it is stillbeing used , we can't definitively say where that plane is now.

You know they are reading these posts and laughing their asses off because of all the intrigue surrounding GF's big [deleted] plane. Or, hopefully, they are using another plane to go pick up PJ's coaching staff from around the country for a giant meet-n-greet after they introduce him as the new head coach tomorrow (A man can dream, can't he?)

One account that was posted here said a smaller plane owned by Ford flew to BFI on Sunday and flew back to Dallas, with the bigger jet being the one we tracked Monday afternoon. Who knows?

I think it just looks smaller when it is way up in the air.

Man I hope they are reading and saving these posts. Would be nice for PJ to see the love he is getting. Also as there are currently more people logged in here than were at the final game at Ford, it is good proof that if they win people will come. (PS I was sitting my happy [deleted] at the game).

re: You know they are reading these posts and laughing their asses off

Is that why right after the "plane tracking thread day" Orsini sent out a stern e-mail about secrecy about the hiring process? I doubt Orsini found the plane tracking information as extremely funny.

As a little light hearted change of pace, when we would practice as freshmen, we would practice on the south side of what is now Ford Stadium, (then Ownby). Sleepy Morgan, God rest his soul was our freshmen coach. He would be overseeing workouts and calling instructions, moving us around and then on occasion would blow his whistle and call us all together. He would point to the sky at which would normally be in those days a large Braniff jet closing in on Love Field. He would shake his head and pause and then in his "Sleepy Morgan" voice that you have to have known to appreciate, would say "Just amazing. I just don't see how those big birds stay up in the air." He would continue to watch until it sunk below the tree line and then whistle us back to practice. This would happen on a recurring basis.

Just a thought.... i would think if they had blocked that tail on flightaware, all its logs should be invisible to gen pub. the site still pulls the log, and if you registered, you can still pull the log back 4 months. just seems weird. i say the GJF plane's still in miami.

whether or not they are using another plane altogether is another story...

they may have switched up the planes if they saw what those morons at the DC wrote in today's paper

Or when you get out of the shower!

What would it be like to own two planes?
