To all -
this should be of special interest to Canadian media who have
bemoaned the reported costs - $50,000 - of the Zundel deportation in
a private charter plane at taxpayers' expense from Canada to Germany.
As a matter of conjecture, a great deal more seems to have been
involved.
My offer of $1,000 to anybody who can reliably connect this plane to
extrajudicial renditions and/or black torture sites has, so far,
yielded four incomplete but interesting responses:
Response # 1: Note that the Challenger 604 5465 - airplane does NOT
have an assigned owner. () Please note this airplane apparently
has NEVER had an owner - it remains unmarked. () If Skyservice
rented this plane out to Canada to transport Ernst, it cost the
Canadian taxpayer - assuming it was held overnight and rented for 48
hours, at least $264.000.
Response # 2: If you are confident that the tail number is correct
and the aircraft does not appear in the Canadian registry data base,
then there are only two possibilities:
1. The aircraft in question is stolen and the tail number has been altered.
2. It was never registered in the first place and is being used for a
black operation by a government agency.
All aircraft are subject to occasional Air Worthiness Directives
(A/Ds) once they have been put into operation. These A/Ds are
enforced by the gov't agency that originally certified the aircraft
as being airworthy. The reason for the issuance of an A/D is usually
to correct a design flaw which could compromise air safety. For this
reason the FAA or Transport Canada must have the names and addresses
of owners and operators in a registry which allows them to issue an
A/D to the appropriate party.
Response # 3: I am glad we are getting some more specifics as to that
plane. That there doesn't appear to be any registered owner is
telling and of course we can imagine the scenario there. The US govt
has a number of companies it deals with that have their own aircraft.
One of those is in Oregon, Evergreen Aviation. When the gov't needs
to carry out a secret mission that requires flying, they do it
through one of these companies. The connections between the two of
course are purposely disconnected through dummy companies, etc. so it
is very hard to establish a link between them, a given mission and
the US gov't. So, it will be hard to tie this down for the gov't has
been carrying out clandestine aircraft missions for very many years
(it all started to build up during the Vietnam era, when companies
like Evergreen were contracted to fly missions into Laos and other
places the US wasn't supposed to be in). Today, it is very easy for
the US to silently and invisibly contract with such companies to
carry out flying missions, and the "dots" are very hard to connect
for they have had a lot of practice in disconnecting them.
Response # 4
The latest information received about this plane came just an hour ago:
As of May 11, 2006, it belonged to Lyn Shinn, Director of Skyservice
in Mississauga, ON, Canada. Fees to rent this plane are as follows:
1 hour costs appr. $6,000 (CAD)
1 hour fuel $550 ,-CAD
Overnight charge $680,- CAD plus 2 x Crew Pilot und Copilot a 9885,-(
depending on agreement)
Landing charge $ 550,- CAD
Costs for a trip to Germany, as per 1-1-07 a 24 hour minimum
$144.000,- CAD round trip, including stops -
plus
Fuel Surcharge $ 9.350,- CAD
Overnight charge $ 680,- CAD
Fees per country ( 2 x ) $ 1.100,- CAD
plus 2 mal $9885,- $ 19.770,- CAD
------------------------------------------------------
total:
$ 174.900,- CAD
+ TAXes $ 26.235,- CAD
------------------------------------------------------
Total $ 201.135,- CAD
In addition to possible fees and taxes for police and security
personnel in the respective countries ....?
All this to get rid of a simple 'VISA OVERSTAY' ???
What we now need to find out from our European "plane spotters" is if
this plane was sighted anywhere in connection with "black sites" or
"extrajudicial renditions" ! There exist listserves and websites
that deal with all this from a European perspective. Perhaps some of
you would like to get involved?
Perhaps let the Canadian media know so they can do their duty and
inform the Canadian people?
Thank you in advance.
