Christmas Day 2007
The day was pretty much as shown in the picture... it was cool and clear.
In the morning I got the call to pick up the neonatal transport team in Cape Girardeau and go get a preemie somewhere down South. After the flight I landed at the Cape Airport and got fuel. The airplane you see pictured was sitting on the ramp there, shining and beautiful. I made note of the airplane's tail number... N1EB. It didn't strike a note at the time.
In the afternoon I got another call, almost a twin of the morning flight. Neonate team aboard, we flew over the Cape Girardeau airport as that Gulfstream taxi'ed for takeoff. Gleaming beneath us, the tower cleared him for takeoff to Palm Beach, Florida, and my Paramedic immediately identified the airplane's owner.
Got a guess?

Wild guess. Was it Shaq?? Sport headlines today were about him flying to LA for treatment to a hip injury. Although, I don't know what the plane would be doing in Cape Girardeau.... I think he flew from Minnesota - maybe the pilot stopped in Mo. for some fuel on the way back home????
One of the Bush brothers?

Cape Girardeau, Mo...
Headed back to Palm Beach Florida.
Mr. Limbaugh owns a very nice airplane. I'll bet he fills the air inside with cigar smoke!
