AggieDave 6 #1 January 12, 2006 Are the CASAs used by Blackwater owned by them or by Paul? Anyone know? It doesn't really matter, I'm just really curious.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkymonkeyONE 4 #3 January 12, 2006 No, Blackwater owns their own fleet of airplanes and keeps them various places. Randy Kern and Geno Suarez (both ex-golden knights) fly out of their base in Laurenburg, NC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #4 January 12, 2006 Cool. The CASA in their promo video for training looked like one of Paul's but I didn't see a tail number to really tag it down so it got my mind=a wondering.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

SkymonkeyONE 4 #5 January 12, 2006 It might be possible that they have in the past or currently lease one or more of Paul's planes, but as far as I have seen, they use the old STI planes. STI became blackwater aviation a couple of years ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greene 0 #6 January 12, 2006 Blackwater still uses Pauls CASA's on a contract basis. SGC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #7 January 13, 2006 Most , if not all, of the State side ones that one might see are Paul's. The ones used overseas, like the one I recovered the bodies from in Afghanistan, are from Blackwaters private fleet."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
