[GRADE A1/A2 — Deutsche Bank KYC, EFTA corpus, FAA records]
The Boeing 727-31, Serial Number 20115, Registration N908JE, manufactured 1969, was the primary aircraft used to transport documented minors between trafficking locations. Its complete ownership chain has been recovered through FAA registry records, aviation databases, and DOJ corpus mining (v2.6).
Complete ownership chain (FAA registry records, aviation databases):
| # | Registration | Owner | Date | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| 2 | N505T | Tenneco Inc | Sep 1980 | Purchased from TWA fleet |
| 3 | N505C | FB Transport Inc / Mike Davis Oil Co | Jan 1987 / Aug 1988 | Corporate transfers |
| 4 | N500LS | Limited Stores Inc (The Limited / Wexner) | Jan 1990 | "LS" = Limited Stores |

The gap is closed: The aircraft was registered to Limited Stores Inc as N500LS from January 1990, transferred through two Wexner-linked shell entities (Northwest Delaware Co, Hayes Productions LLC -- the latter sharing L Brands headquarters address), briefly held by Real Estate Exchange Inc, then re-registered as N908JE to JEGE Inc on January 25, 2001. JEGE Inc. was incorporated in Delaware on September 7, 2000 (certificate filed from "J Epstein & Company, Inc." fax, EFTA source) -- four months before the aircraft registration transferred, proving the acquisition entity was created before the transfer.
The aircraft: JEGE Inc., a Delaware corporation, operated N908JE. Deutsche Bank internal compliance documentation (EFTA01408065) confirms: JEGE Inc. was "a company formed to hold funds for the taxes and payments of one of Jeffrey Epstein's airplanes." The aircraft logged 1,402 flights in the Neo4j database, with the latest recorded flight on April 26, 2018.
The entity structure: Epstein maintained a network of aviation entities at Deutsche Bank under the "Southern Financial Relationship" — 44 accounts including JEGE Inc., JEGE LLC, Hyperion Air LLC, Hyperion Air Inc., Neptune LLC, NES LLC, Plan D LLC, and others. A single daily deposit report (EFTA01465330, Oct 21, 2013) shows simultaneous $100K-$300K transfers across Neptune LLC ($100K), Hyperion Air LLC ($100K), Hyperion Air Inc. ($100K), JEGE Inc. ($200K), and JEGE LLC ($300K). Southern Trust Company Inc. — the master account — held $27,255,048.50.
Hayes Productions LLC — the N500LS connection: The mining operation recovered correspondence (EFTA00796011, EFTA00805545) documenting Hayes Productions LLC offering to sell a 1999 Boeing Business Jet, Serial No. 29054, Registration N500LS, through Bristol Associates. The registration N500LS contains the "LS" suffix associated with Limited Stores (Wexner's company). An LOI from American Convoi LLC (Jul 23, 2018) proposed purchasing at $10M. Epstein was actively involved in this negotiation — email correspondence (EFTA02601962) between Epstein and Visoski regarding the N500SL/N500LS LOI shows Epstein stating "other planes of this vintage have sold for 12-14.m" and instructing the broker to "make sure your seller is made aware of our offer."
TIMCO Aviation maintenance — Michigan connection: N908JE engine maintenance was performed at Oscoda, Michigan (EFTA01994979). Morrison emailed Epstein (Dec 23, 2011): "The seal liner internal on #3 engine on Boeing needs repair... will have to remove #3 engine and ship to Oscoda, Michigan, repair facility." Documented TIMCO payments from JEGE Inc. accounts total over $1.5M: $1,088,751.34 (EFTA01482647, Oct 2005), $207,856.95 (EFTA01579546, Apr 2008), $188,573.00 (EFTA01580821, Jan 2012), $12,136.88 (EFTA01483008, Feb 2009).
Congressional deposition on aircraft transfer (v2.3, expanded v2.6): Under oath, Wexner provided six key passages of sworn testimony on the aircraft sale:
Additional aviation testimony (v2.6): Wexner testified Prince Andrew cold-called him offering aircraft purchasing advice: "I know that you buy and sell airplanes in your business. ... if you need an advisor, I'm available." Wexner declined: "No, thank you. I'm covered." (Deposition lines 1502-1505) This is the sole documented contact between Wexner and Andrew.
Dennis Curtain identified as Limited aviation contact (v2.6): Visoski email (doj-epstein-files) references "reviewing my notes from Dennis Curtain from the Limited" regarding a center fuel tank service bulletin -- establishing Curtain as a named Limited Brands aviation department employee who maintained contact with Visoski after the personnel transfer.
Morrison confirmed as Limited employee (v2.6): An email from Visoski (rhowardstone-corpus) states: "Spoke to the Limited Pilots when we were in London last week, they said Morrison wore 2 stripes, not 3 like he told Dave and I he wore." This confirms Morrison was a Limited flight department employee whose colleagues were still in contact with Visoski.
WHAT THIS SHOWS (v2.6 UPDATE): The documentary record now fully establishes the N908JE ownership chain from TWA (1969) through Limited Stores Inc/The Limited Inc (1990-2000) through Wexner-linked shell entities (Northwest Delaware Co, Hayes Productions LLC at L Brands address, Real Estate Exchange Inc) to JEGE Inc (January 25, 2001). JEGE Inc. was incorporated September 7, 2000 -- four months before the aircraft transfer -- proving pre-planned acquisition. The N500LS registration confirmed "LS" = Limited Stores via FAA records. Wexner's sworn testimony that the sale was a "fair deal" at $6M contradicts his own counsel's representation to DOJ of a "deeply discounted theft." The use of three intermediary entities (Northwest Delaware Co -> Hayes Productions -> Real Estate Exchange -> JEGE Inc) to transfer a single aircraft from a publicly traded company to a private individual's shell corporation is consistent with deliberate ownership obfuscation.
