Spooky, I remember your PMs. You were having issues with some of your pilots over at Vulcan and asked for my advice. In the same email you asked about our AUX tank intallations. I wrote you back with advice for your flight dept then wrote you back a seperate PM not 1 minute later apoligizing for not answering the Aux tank question in my previous email, then went on to do so, so don't sit up here and tell these lies. If you think I am about to post the serial # of the aircraft I fly, you are high. Nobody on here does that, and I am cetainly not about to start doing it, and you know that. For me to post the specifics about the aircraft leave the door wide open for you or anyone else to discover what corporation I work for, and I will have no such activity. People operate corporate aircraft for privacy among other things. For me to reveal that openly would be unprofessional, irresponsible, and terms for termination. I won't do that for the same reasons you don't. It's like the guy who wrote in about getting more pay of moving to a G200 from a Be-40. He didn't post his serial #. Why? Privacy and the ramifications. If you have some technical questions about operating a 757, feel fre to ask away, but don't think for a second that I am going to get into some discussion about what it is I fly and do not fly just because you want me to prove something to you. And post the contact name of our company's training rep? Once again, are you nuts? WHy would I release that infomation to you? So you can call him? Think about what you are asking. You knew before you wrote that nobody in there right mind would do something like that. You have lost your mind. Spooky, post your training facility and your reps name (Since you work for Vulcan I can find your A/C type and serial #s) Go ahead, just post the same info you are wanting me to do. The only reason you and I are having this discussion is because I fly a 757. If it were a be-40, citation, Hawker, or anything besides a transport catagory aircraft we would not even be having this conversation. I hope you don't claim to be a professional. As for Boeing knowing where all their aircraft are, you are the only one that has suggested otherwise. When/where did I suggest Beoing doesn't know about our aircraft? Here is a list of all 75 operators, as I am sure you have a copy of this. I assure you, we are on the list. Just because you don't know who I am does not give you the right to call yourself a 757 expert on who does and does not operate one. By the way, we operate under part 125 (Not allowed to operate a 757 part 91. Goes back to that transport catagory aircraft issue). Paul Allen and marc Cuban are not the only ones that operate 757s in the US privately. Cuban's is operated P. 121 by Pace. I believe yours is operated P125. You are wrong about 2 corporate operators of 757s in the US. You are just wrong about that. Aside from not having those facts straight, remember, to operate and be based in the US, your aircraft is NOT required to have an "N", nor is an aircraft owned by an American (company or individual) required to be "N" registered and I think that is what is throwing you off. You're not thinking. Get your facts straight instead of showing your A**.

Don't know when Peavy would have ordered their 757, but I am sure that they are not operating it today, if ever? The fact is that there are only a few private 757's being operated on a world wide basis. Private Air in Geneva, the Goverment of Mexixo are but a few examples. Their are only two corporate operators in the US at this time. Believe me, Boeing knows where every aircraft they have built is operating, no exceptions. Our poser must be really dense if he thinks that his airplane is unkonwn to the rest of the Boeing communuity. Watch him obfusacte when he answers the last couple of questions that I have asked him.
If he is reading this, which I guessing he will, assuming he can break away from his duties, how about giving us a big hint about his particular aircraft. Give us the Line Number and Serial Number. I will bet you anything he either cannot do it, or does not even know where to find it. How about this question? What type of certificate does his Boeing operate under? Part 121, 125, 91? Come on show us some answers.
I suppose that there are any numeber of posers at any one time on this board, but when they are so obvious as 757BBJ Capt., it just has to be challenged at brought to the surface for everyone to see. The joke is in this guys hand and for what ever reason, he thinks the rest of us are stupid. Take a look at his radar post. Geeeze, talk about a puffed up ego in his opening post. The F/O he was working with was probably not smart enough to understand the finer points of radar operation? They must hire the handicaped over there, if there is a there?
This is just the beginning!
