New Corporate Jet for ELT

ELT took delivery of a corporate jet late last year… timing lines up with the big round of layoffs right before Christmas. Guess they had to ruin peoples’ holidays to get the jet paid for…

I don’t know the model, but have talked to someone who traveled on it with an ELT member and was told it seats around 20 people. It is at least capable of long haul flights from DFW to Europe. I haven’t been able to find the registration information yet.

Those jets are 80 million and change.

FAA search shows the Alcon jet was tail number N685G

And looks like it was trusteed to TVPX in July 2022, but potentially back to Gulfstream on Aug 31, 2023.
