BofA Gulfstream On Final From Moscow; Bank Of Russia In The Cards? Just Think Of The Synergies...

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/15/2010 14:40 -0400

Update: It appears the plane is a C/O ConocoPhillips. Now that makes MUCH more sense.

Hat tip to reader Anynomous who points out a Bank of America jet on arrival from Moscow. This brings up some questions:

Did Hank Paulson just host another secret bash for Goldman Board members in his Kremlin pad, and decide to open it up to the ex-Lewis boys?
Is Bank of America preparing its Rakoff defense, and is so terrified of being spied upon it has decided to go to the only place deemed safe from flies on the wall?
Dare we say it... Bank of USSR?

From FlightAware:

Marla points out the following:

Registration Type: Corporation
Owner:Bank Of America NA
Address:16901 Jfk Blvd
Houston, TX 77032
United States Region:Southwestern
Certification Class:Standard
Certification Issued:2006-08-10
Air Worthiness Test:2006-03-21
Last Action Taken:2006-08-10
Current Status:Valid

I remember the Goldman Sachs "board meeting" in Moscow story very well. And Hank just happened to be their on UST business. And they just happened to end up in Hank's hotel room. And they just happened to discuss the ramifications of say, a Lehman Brothers going down. And I'm not even wearing my tin foil hat. Next thing you know, a couple of vaguely Asian guys will be stopped at the Italian/Swiss border holding $1T in UST bearer bonds....

I am at odds with who the plane REALLY belongs to. Might be in BoA name only.

Check thisit says :Owner Bank of America C/O Conoco Phillips

Even on your registration information it shows a Houston address-- highly doubt BoA operating out of Houston

Looks like it is Conoco's jet, but your comment "highly doubt BoA operating out of Houston" - what??? Yeah, because it's not like they trade commonodities or anything.

sorry for the bad info on the GLF5 - its that conspiracy thing e.g. I could be an operative for Cass Sunstein on a cognitive infiltration (of extremist groups) mission

Probably a plane owned by a BAC leasing vehicle f/b/o Conoco.

Ya think they saw the adds on ZH and flew over to "Find Their Russian Beauty Today"?

Fri, 01/15/2010 - 15:32 | 195147 Jewelsnorth

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the Russian beauty ads earlier.

I have noticed on Continental Express Embrarer jets that there was a sign behind the cockpit door indicating that the jets were operated by Expressjet and owned by BOA.

yeah XJT operates and owns/leases the aircraft for "Continental Express"

N662CP is NOT a BofA aircraft. It is operated by Conoco-Philips hence the CP initials in the registration. They have 2 Gulfstream G550's and 3 G450's all of which are based at IAH.

Fri, 01/15/2010 - 15:36 | 195154 left-click gangsta

I bet it's either a leasing-arm of BoA or BoA is advising/financing a deal involving Gazprom.

The important thing here is that an anonymous source got the info to ZH.

I encourage and plead with people out there with information to pass it along to ZH anonymously. send thoughts to tips at zerohedge dot com

thank you.

I sure hope nobody hacks into that. That would be bad, and probably illegal.

Proschai!

B of A sold a couple of their Gulfstreams. I believe they are down to two. Look at the tail number on the plane. It will end with the letters "BA". That in itself does not mean it's Bank of America, but it's something to start with. Also, I doubt you'll be able to track any of their aircraft. They probably have their tail numbers blocked from tracking services.

They keep their planes at a hangar in Charlotte, NC over on the southeast side of the airport.

One tail# appears to have been moved from BA to a an airline in brazil.
