Maybe. But I would think they'd be better off leasing one, if they were to have on on standby.
More often than not, don't alums or boosters "donate" jet usage?
How about this flight???

With all of the costs involved fractional ownership is the way most companies go over actually owning their own plane. I would assume most big schools do the same.
Isn't Michigan generally considered cheap too? If ISU bought a jet I'd be pretty upset. (they haven't right?)
It is, but I think this one (KYIP) is even closer to Ann Arbor than DTW judging by that map.
BTW, My company (Townsend) used to have a Citation X. Almost got on it a few times, once would of been a flight to the Netherlands, with a stop in New York, and Iceland or Greenland for fuel. Its about 9-10 hours airtime, 14-16 hours total commercial. It can be done with the Citation X in about 6-8 total.
The owner of the company sold the company, kept the plane. I think he just got a brand new one, he's been leasing it and the pilots out and making a killing.
From what I've read about this, Michigan uses USA Jets or whatever as their charter company and uses that same airport for team/coach travel, etc. The size of the jet would make it so the nearest airport to Iowa and Michigan would be the places it's taking off and landing from. The jet ended up being on the ground for about 40 minutes instead of the scheduled 15.
In the year 3000, everything's gonna be instant. We can just teleport anywhere we need to be, but going to the DMV will still take 9 seconds.
'COME ON!!! I GOTTA BE AT WORK IN 3 SECONDS!!!!!'
Honestly, is that even within the realm of possiblilty? I would beam myself to Florida everyday after I got home. Even if that was invented, I bet that the goverment would hide it from the public.
Right, that was discussed a long while back I think, the ISU plane no longer available on flight tracker.
I'm hoping we have no need to track it for a very long time.
