Ah most interesting, the dots all line up. The 767 is owned by Saudi Aramco, who through their subsidiary Aramco Associated Co own the G550 that's been under 24 hour guard by avsec down by Air Centre One.
Saudi Aramco is the state owned oil company from Saudi Arabia. My guess is it they that bought about a billion NZD on Wall St the other week that helped our dollar shoot up a bit. They will need that cash to purchase the Shell operation in NZ which is up for sale.

Just a thought for you bored pilots.
Air Centre one, if there handling it will not be able to give out the owners name.....lol Don't be nieve .
Owners of PRIVATE jets have them for many reasons, one being security and safety.
So if the FBO gets known to release such information and someone puts it on a public forum then there business goes down. So out of respect for all concerned, if you get off on looking at these a/c, well go ahead. Dont let it effect someones business.
Having spent 6 years in corporate, it becomes tedious being harrased with such questions.

40 STH, relax. In days gone by maybe an FBO could be held to account if info leaked out, but now, with the plethora of information on the interweb it's pretty hard to hide these things. Even more so when the 767 bears the company logo on the tail.
BTW They're, Naive, Their, Affect.

Okay, I can't keep the secret any longer...it's mine and it travels the world to do endorsements. It will be back in 6 months. I am accepting deposits in advance. Don't wait to reserve your place in line. Send cash or cheque attached to a silver Mercedes. Don't delay.

Lodown, can you swap your aircraft for a -300? I think the -200 is too short and it doesn't look right. An aircraft less likely to tarnish your image is surely reason enough to get a new, longer one.
That's better :

Hey, those ANA freight birds are very nice, thank you very much (well, the 'F's are better than the 'BCF's) .
In all honesty, I've never found such well maintained and clean aircraft and I've flown the pax version for a major airline player. Admittedly, they do lack the gold taps, plush carpet and big beds that 767A probably has but I still reckon the -200 is too stocky (plus I bet the pilots of that 76 get complaints when they do the sort of landings I do, without any complaints apart from the bloke next to me) .
