Center for Disease Control

[Brett Hull]

Just flipping throught the channels, and noticed someone being interviewed inside of a Gulfstream on C-Span. It was the director of the CDC. Anyone know if they have their own fleet, frax, or was it a government airplane. Didn't see anything in the '03 NBAA guide.

Seriously, I really wasn't watching C-Span.

Possibly,

I don’t know about the CDC for sure, but I do know for a fact the GSA (government services administration) operated a pair of G-IV’s, which “occasionally” found themselves flying on loan to such agencies as the EPA, FCC, FBI, State, CIA etc…
So it’s not totally out of the realm possibility they could belong to the government or even the Air Force in this day and age of the Great War on Terror.

The CDC has no airplanes.

I'm very sure that interview was conducted inside an a/c managed by FlightWorks, out of Atlanta, GA. FW has the contract to provide charter services for the CDC. FW owns/manages Citations, Hawkers, Falcons, and G-IIs; it is one of the leading mgmt companies in the Southeast. The certificate is actually under the name Avior Technologies Operations d/b/a FlightWorks.
