  • WSU's Private Jet

    Today I was discussing the specifics of WSU's private jet the team uses for away games and recruiting. My dad said he read Charles Koch lends the use of one of his jets to the university but I've never heard anything like that. Does anybody have insight into this?

    The team will charter planes to away games, but they're not flying in GA aircraft. As for use of private jets (GA), whether it's CK or other donors, I believe it's written into HCGM's contract that he have use/access to a plane a certain number of times per year for official use.

        The private planes referenced in that are charters.

            You need a big Wu next to the pilot's window.

              I give it a C. It would be an A, but the starboard side engine is still blue.
              There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

                Not my fault ... the jackhole painter's union at Boeing went on strike.

                  I just assumed it was a part that thought it was an important engine but always sputtered and failed coming down the homestretch and really had no bearing on the trajectory of the plane.

                    Took it back in for service and they fixed it:

                      A deep water sailor would have pronounced it "Stabbad".

                        Sounds more like a Kennedy.
