Erik Prince/Frontier Service Group now running an old 1979 Short SD3-30 C/N SH3026 out of CIA Air central aka Ft Lauderdale. Used to belong to a west coast SEAL parachute training company. FSG is a Chicom CITIC company. Begin scratching head now.
Photo is January 2019.
Plane was sold by SkyQuest, Oddly enough the company that sold Erik Prince's other secret planes. Does it get weirder? Oh yes..quite a bit weirder.
Boeing B767-238ER c/n:23403 Tail # N774WD was owned by Erik Prince's Salamis Aviation. Sold in 2010ish. Supposed to be an airline that flew from Florida to Dulles to Eastern Europe and then Afghanistan. Rendition express? Did it actually happen? Well Skippy the internet is free.
Lot of big ideas back then. Presidential Airways leases it to Academi via Atom because we know who flies from Florida via Dulles to Romania to Bagram. Wait it gets weirder? ch-aviation.com/portal/news/13…
Original idea was for Jordanian military aka JIA to fly a "Boeing 767-200ER aircraft leased from a Bahamas-based organisation called Salamis Aviation." to create the perfect airline between Dulles....and Baghdad.
The Short skydive aircraft was ferried from East Africa and sold to Win Win Aviation in DeKalb for a HAHO/HALO Navy govt contract. Did they paint the FSG logo over?

FSG had 20 pax with AN26 and Shorts SD 3-30 rear loading aircraft, PC6 Porter and C208B
STOL aircraft 3 Aérospatiale Gazelles (modified for guns) and Bell 412 helicopters and 2 (cough, cough ) illegally modified air tractors yet to be found. africaoilandpower.com/about/sponsors…
Well the goal here is to track down all the FSG aircraft some that were weaponized according to the pilots and the two missing AT 802s which were the main focal point of King and Spaulding. Remember all those pitch decks include ancient odd airframes. buzzfeednews.com/article/aramro…
