Are you sure its not the jet of the very rich alumni guy that lives in Texas? Or the UMHS patient transport jet?

If I recall correctly, The university doesn't own any jets, Rich Rod did his recruiting from a leased turboprop Beech King Air.

If it is then I sincerely apologize to all of you guys.

I friend of mine called me from the hanger and told me about the plane knowing I'm a big Michigan fan. So I went out there to look at it and took pics. Again I apologize, my mistake. I did not know the University didn't have their own jet. Guess I deserve the neg bangs for that. Still, if anyone would like to see the pics and knows how I can upload them from my cell phone please let me know how to do it.

I think I misworded my original reply. The Athletic Department and University in general do not own their own jets. The Hospital system (UMHS) has their own jets that they use for critical patient evac and urgent organ transplants. So there are University of Michigan jets, but they aren't used for personal trips and such. Can you imagine what the Freep would run with if Rich Rod was using a Michigan jet to go visit family?

It's probably more cost

It's probably more cost effective for them to lease or fly out of Detroit.

Virginia Tech has two planes (the Hokie Birds, of course) that faculty and staff can use for state business, but our departments are charged by person-flight hour. It's just cost-recovery, though, so it's much cheaper than commercial. Well worth it, too, when it's the choice between a 50 minute flight to DC or a 4-hour drive.

Our airstrip is right on campus, and we're really in the middle of nowhere (at least for the Eastern U.S.) so that may be why we have our own.

I'd bet that Beamer gets free Hokie Bird hours as part of his contract. I know Saban gets to use the LSU planes as part of his.

Anybody want stock tips? Real estate is BIG.

"in addition to the $32 mil, Alabama makes a non-commercial airplane available for Saban's personal use for 25 hours per year"

I used to live in Bridgeport, WV

I used to live in Bridgeport, WV.(1978-82) I know that airport well. When we lived there it was barely big enough for jets to land on. I'd be real interested to see your pics. Go Indians !!! Is Bridgeport High still known as the Indians or has political correctness wrecked it for everybody ?

Glad to hear it Jaba.

The Indians won the State Championship when we lived there in 1979. It was a great time. I figured the airport was expanded I've heard B-port and Clarksville are almost connected now. There was plenty of space between them when I lived there.

Team plane

If some rich alum would pony up for a team plane for game travel, I think that would make a good recruiting tool. If they got an Antonov 225 they could even scrimmage on the flight.

Actually, I don't know what the team does now. Do they team take a bus to places like Wisky and Minny and PSU? Or fly coach?

The alumni would have to be

The alumni would have to be Stephen M. Ross or Larry Page rich to do that without taking a significant hit. Planes and maintenance aren't cheap.

Besides, the University would probably prefer that money to go towards grants and scholarships.

The smaller teams fly commercial to get to the further schools and tourneys. I believe football charters its own jet to go to places like Iowa, although I could be wrong. Equipment makes it down on our very own Semi (it has wings!)
