Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4At the time the Gulfstream worked for the CIA on torture flights it was owned by New York Hotel Gansevoort proprietor William Achenbaum. It was managed at the time by Air Rutter of California which is owned by Arik Kislin who is also a principal in the Hotel Gansevoort's. Kislins Mahattan company sponsored a visa for a Russian Mafia Hit Man.
http://www.nypost.com/seven/04152007/gossip/pagesix/sha..._.htm
Achenbaum sold it in August 2007 to Donna Blue Aircraft, which then sold it on September 15 to Clyde O'Connor. O'Connor is now lying low.

Arik Kislin, who managed the Gulfstream 2 at the time it was bringing kidnapped and tortured Muslims to Guantanamo and when it was landing at Shannon and Baldonnel is a nephew of Samyon Kislin who the FBI have linked with money laundering.
Semyon (Sam) Kislin, an immigrant from Odesa, Ukraine who is well known among the Russian Jewish community in South Brooklyn as a prosperous commodities trader, is a generous supporter of the United Jewish Appeal and of the state of Israel. He has contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the United Jewish Appeal, according to published accounts, and donated $1.5 million to build a college library in Sha’ar Hanegev in Israel.
The Russian government publication 'Rossiyskaya Gazeta' claims that Semyon Kislin and the Chernoy brothers formed Trans Commodities in 1990 as an early vehicle for the takeover of the metals industry as it was being privatized.
A 1996 Interpol report claims that Kislin’s firm, Trans
Commodities, Inc., was used by two reputed mobsters from
Uzbekistan, Lev and Mikhail Chernoy, for fraud and embezzlement.
And a confidential 1994 FBI intelligence report on the Brooklyn,
NY mob organization headed by Vyacheslav Ivankov, the
imprisoned godfather of Russian organized crime in the United
States, lists Kislin as a “member/associate’’ of Ivankov’s gang.
It claims that Kislins company co-sponsored a Russian crime boss and contract killer, Anton Malevsky, for a US visa and asserts that he was a “close associate” of the late notorious arms smuggler Babeck Seroush, who later settled in Russia.
Anton Malevsky was head of one of the most bloodthirsty Mafiya familias, Moscow's Izmaylovo gang and now lives in Tel Aviv, Israel. Arrested in Antwerp in 1995, Malevsky was extradited to France to face a murder charge after brothers Shelomo and David were arrested with 650 kilos of cocaine in Antwerp.
In May 1999, Sam Kislin co-chaired a Giuliani Senate race fundraiser at the Sheraton Hotel and Towers in New York. The gathering raised $2.1 million for Giuliani's aborted senate campaign.
Arik Kislin contributed $1000 to Giuliani's 1995 mayoral campaign and his Blonde Management shared office space with Sam Kislin's Trans Commodities.
Arik Kislin gave Hillary Clinton $4000 in 2006, specifically on Sept. 12, 2006. That same day an Olya Kislin also donated $4000 to Hillary Clinton.
In 2005, Achenbaum contributed $2100 to Nevada Democratic Representative Shelley Berkley. Achenbaum's occupation was listed as Partner of Omnibus Management, Ltd. Berkley represents Las Vegas.
Achenbaum is the owner of S/A Associates of 100 Ring Road, Garden City, Long Island, who also owns a Gulfstream IV, tail number N841PA, which was operated by Presidential Aviation, Inc., the same operator that flew Canadian citizen Maher Arar on a rendition flight to Jordan, where he was transferred to a torture prison in Syria on board Gulfstream III, tail number N829MG. The Gulfstream III was owned by MJG Aviation from October 2000 to July 2004, when the Florida company, whose owner also ran Presidential Airways, was dissolved.
All their planes have landed in Ireland but of course we don't know what they were carrying as the Gardai do not search CIA planes under the management of Russian Mafyiosa because the US embassy tells them there is nothing on them!!! Even if they did look they would only find a lot of black suitcases marked 'Private'.
There is another Gulfstream, tail-no. N388CA, owner: Wells Fargo Bank, placed in trust by S/A Holdings LLC. (ex-N841PA, ex-N800BQ) operated by Presidential Aviation, previously owned by Mark J. Gordon (G IV LEASING, LLC) and listed as CIA-linked from Eurocontrol UK (as N800BQ, c/n 1034)

Same Gulf as N841PA was in Shannon on June 26, 2006:

Here you will also find N987SA.
Since Dec 2006 N987SA has 4 more flights to Mexiko.
Kislins partner is Michael Chernoy, an ukrainian billionaire, drug-trafficker and moneylaunderer.

N987SA: Neue Spuren im Dschungel von Drogen und CIA
http://worldcontent.twoday.net/stories/4341410/
any reminder of the affront to national sovreignty & international law which all rendition, ops, drug flights by any of the 16 US secret services is welcome. But then you've to avoid looking at the photos of the directors of companies who have no doors. So don't look for a face. No chomping cigar, no young tough buck with torture hooks behind him.............no crew either. Where did they go? Did they hitch-hike in a car with a small boot or trunk as the gringo calls it? Were there roads to hitch-hike from? Is there a hyphen in hitchhike? was the plane to heavy to salvage & spirit away???
Well done Guy, you've written a great article on the data available. Well, at least the cartels aren't using mules.
N987SA................tells us a rake of aircraft were sold? N987SA..............tells us aircraft colours can be faked?.............N987SA..........tells us fin plates can be too?
oh well then, gregori ivanovitch where is the real N987SA?
no matter we chew this bone. It will keep alive the smell of burning meat. any clue is good if it points to the general good.
Thank you again Guy de C. boing boing.
