she's flying at 1115L: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/VPBDJ
Just saw it on approach from my house - no new color scheme - still the same Black/Gold VP-BDJ.
Thanks for the visual Mark, thought with such a long overhaul and Mr Trumps dollars a repaint would have been included. Since DT spends a lot of weekends at his spread in PBI would not be a bit surprised if we see a PBI-LGA sector late this afternoon/early evening.
Cheers
LGA777
VP-BDJ flew from PBI back to VQQ a few hours ago.
Trump files for VQQ to LGA

Seems like Trump didn't do VQQ-LGA last night - it's filed for this morning..
Your tracked aircraft VPBDJ has just filed a flight plan. It is scheduled to depart KVQQ (Cecil Field) at 07:00AM EST heading for KLGA (La Guardia) for an arrival at 08:49AM EST.
Expected route: SSIM SAV J207 RDU J55 HPW J191 PXT
Heads up LGA folks!!!
Ah, welcome back BDJ!
anybody see her yet? new paint or a fresh polish? anything changed?
Matt, you gotta scroll up. It was already posted that the aircraft looks the same with the same paint.

I finally saw her yesterday for the first time in a while. Good to see that "familiar face".
Phil, when Trump sends VP-BDJ down to VQQ for the yearly maintenence, do Captain Donovan and the rest of the crew have to stay with it in Florida until the checks are complete, or do they return home?
Mr. Trump just took the longest roll of the day for any airplane with the mains coming off with 300 useable left.
Since he's down there for several months, I've pretty sure that the crew would be sent home on another airline.Quote:

Here is one of the quick edits I did from this morning...

Yeah, new tail logo there. Wow. About time SOMETHING changed. haha
I like the old one more though.
I do too - I'm not a big fan of the new logo, but it's nice for a change.Quote:

I have to get to LGA soon to see VP-BDJ before it's retired :shock:

He just landed at Trenton. From there's he's headed to PBI.
A new G-IV is a lot pricier than a D-check, pricier than even a replacement 727...that's the reason he said he got the 72 in the first place. Besides, he wouldn't be able to fit his ginormous TRUMP font on a smaller biz jet. :)
Does Trump still fly into LGA frequently on the 727?
Or is a once in a blue moon deal?
He parks it at LGA. It's usually there almost every day during the week. On the weekends, it's down at Palm Beach.Quote:

He filed a little earlier for LAS-LAX.
He left LAX last night and arrived at PBI at 1AM this morning.
