We still have the 2 King Airs...no jets.

I searched planes registered to "texas" based in College Station. Looks like Texas A&M still has 2 Kingair 200s. Search result numbers 10 and 12.

The conspiracy theorist in me believes that they want you to believe it was only flight instruction, and not admin in the planes. Why would there be an instructional flight at 9:30 PM on a Sunday night? Seems like an odd day, not time of day, to do an instructional flight. Most people are at home on Sunday nights, not doing flight school. Am I wrong to think that?

I was just thinking something odd today. If there is a 14th (or 15th & 16th) team from a non Big 12 Conference that was going to make the jump they would have announced by now. They would have to get all the legalities out of the way just as you guys had done (unless it was an independent), which none have so far. If another Big 12 school was going to make the jump with A&M they would have all the requirements for leaving from A&M. They could wait for the final moment to announce and bolt as a pair or more.

Just food for thought.

Looks like they've got a King Air too, though. Wonder where it is/was today.

There will be a press conference tomorrow at 11:00. Bank on it.

Any talk of press conferences makes me lulz

Someone needs to be in Columbia to see who gets off this flight

In the immortal words of Artie Johnson... Verrry Interesting...

Duh, they're flying in that pinwheel contraption to make ESPN think it's just flight school. Nothing to see here.

But they really have a few big cigars sitting in there deciding the fate of college football as we know it.

Someone trained at OU flight school posting on landthieves seems to think it was NOT flight training.

oh..the plot thickens.

If you look at "today's flight schedule" on the website Trey linked, you'll notice the last training flights of the day happen at about 3:30 pm.

Read the description of the plane from OUs aviation websit

their flight schedule starts tomorrow and doesnt list flights for today

Landthieves saying it made the OKC sunday night sports show. LOL.

OK Sports Blitz on the OKC CBS station (Dean Blevins and John Holcomb) just mentioned the ou plane flight and the fact that it was currently enroute to Columbia.

Their take is that is ou and mizzou folks (and maybe some osu folks) trying a last ditch effort to keep A&M in the Big 12.

But they also went on to say that if we DO leave, ou, osu, and others won't be far behind.

OU, OSU, and Mizzou flying down to CS asking A&M to stay?

Why would you need to hide that and do it in a tiny plane?

If that really was the case...they better have told Dodds first. lol

Some of you guys need to get involved in other things. Texags is not a club.

LOL

This isn't a club? Then why does Brandon keep asking to tip the ladies? And why do I feel so dirty and shameful about the amount of time I spend here?

That tells me we are about to announce TOMORROW.

Last ditch effort indeed.

I think something is up. Why didn't walking papers come from Dallas BIG 12 headquaters? Also on Sunday night. There is planning going on.

@LandThieves LandThieves
Either the flight was the A&M walking papers delivered by OU/Mizzou or the 3 are planing something. Flight path cant be coincidental

Could be walking papers:
