Ugh i dont know where you millionaires get your money but a King Air is a 5 to 7 million dollar airplane. Get off your high horses and flip me a burger.

I work in private aviation. The fact of the matter is that Currie had been flying around on donor planes "secretly." Now that he crapped the bed, they are putting him and possibly the new coach on the King Air......

Absolutely hilarious.

Ah understood my bad. I do love the airplane though and 111UT is the most beautiful in the type but I might be a tad biased though. 😬👍

Would be completely tonedeaf and a slap in the face if this was filed just to thumb their noses at the fans.

I’m not saying it’s real. I’m just saying if it’s not, shame on them.

I am not saying a 350i is crappy. But it is funny how Currie was traveling back and forth during our supposed "search" on a big heavy jet and now its back to the UT owned King Air.

After being in this industry for a few years, i have learned that if I ever hit it big (lotto), I would never purchase a jet. Horrible investment. However, some of the newer King Air 350 series are very nice and have just now been able to become wifi compatible. Perfect planes for golf trips!

SI reporting we are reaching out to North Carolina State Head Coach. Is Gundy a smokescreen?

Yeah I misunderstood your initial reason. Lears and Challengers and Gx’s are status symbols for people making a statement. Beautiful but expensive to own and more so to operate. A King Air is a working mans plane. Beautiful , power to spare, efficient to operate (compared to a jet. Maybe not so much to a Caravan or Pilatus) and FAST en route.

Set up for landing and rollout all dirtied up they are simply a work of art.

Beat me to it. Nobody is punished for filing a flight plan. It’s encouraged for many reasons and required for specific flight conditions.

Additionally, as I was asked by someone who just texted me, even if you filed two flight plans, the issuing controller would ask which one you wanted. The controller would then delete the other. So you can't really "smoke screen" a flight plan or at least I'm not smart enough to know how. Of course I haven't filed my own flight plan in 20 plus years.

NortDallas you sound like a man in love with airplanes. I too can appreciate the design of many planes. I’m not a pilot or any kind of expert but do love some of the designs.

Yeah been around them my whole life and I’m an Air Force brat. Never got my PPL so I’ve spent a lot of time in the back of them, working on the stuff I do (aerospace industry). Signed up for ground school but again career and life just never allowed it. Do have some stick time in a few different types including DC3 and C130. The term “stick time” is used loosely on those two, I was in the left seat but under HEAVY supervision.

...[Deleted Image showing an incorrect registration for N111UT]...

And just like that...
But who really knows. The noise seems to be a bit consistent, in a "let-me-post-my-scoop-now-so-I-can-say-I-told-you-so" kinda way at the moment. (Hmmm...I guess I did the same thing...oh brother....)

*** Edit: Clearly that is the right plane. I have no idea what that image was referring to.

You can go ahead and call me envious of your career path, Sir.

Are you trying to claim N111UT is not UT’s aircraft and has no flight history at all?!

it's a four hour drive. I'd imagine Gundy is in Stillwater at the moment.

doubt anybody is driving four hours...that's why GOD made planes and helicopters...also, this is not a social sight-seeing tour...time is money and possibly some AD's job could be on the line...:)


PS. also could be a ruse...:)

GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing quite like following flight plans and getting our hopes up. Then the big day arrives. We're ready for the big announcement. And the new coach is
