Looks like a 767? Came in yesterday and is still parked off to the side this morning. Not painted like Abramovich's.
Thanks.

Can someone see a tail #, registration number. A year ago New Years in addition to Roman’s was a private 777 registered to a bank in Salt Lake City as trustee.

If i had a jet and a yacht, i think id be in sailing off sxm for the next couple months.

I think it's a cargo plane because no windows.

It looked like it has windows as I wondered about that also.

I think is had the letters "ESO" or something similar on it.

Friend who is part of aviation here says this. May be the one you're talking about.

Big Pappy visitors to SXM. 9H-BIG, Airbus A340-300. Charter aircraft registered in Malta to the company Air X charter. I wonder who’s on board?

Not sure why I said 767 as I knew the engine configuration was not a 767. Thanks for the info.

I put a picture of the plane he's talking about in the SXM photo page here. Don't have time to move it here, I can never remember how to do it. See if it's the same one.

I know Roxxy Beach has some connection to the festival and has been packed. Friends went there to eat the other day and were told it was $200 minimum per table with the event going on. Lots of $$ changing hands there.
