RED JET Sighted in Orange County

[BRAD HERBERT]

Hi all,

I did a quick search on the forums, so I apologize if this has been seen before. But I was finishing up my first major RED shoot in Orange County on RED #16 (Connor) and I was sitting at the John Wayne airport looking out on the runway, and what passed in front of me? A RED logo'd jet.

How appropriate considering the nature of my trip.

Grabbed my camera and snapped a few pics before is slipped into the sky. I assume it's Jim's, the N-number on the plane looked like a RED-style font too.. was pretty cool.

Thought I would share. Pictures attached plus a pic of #16 getting a tech-check in my hotel room the day before the shoot.

Ah very cool! Didn't think to search outside of REDUSER.net =)

So looks like he's had the plane for awhile, and updated it recently with RED badges?

I think it used to fly Oakley logos, I remember way back when someone spotted it in New Zealand while Jim and Jarred were there on the "secret" mission with Peter Jackson shooting "Crossing The Line". Those were exciting days around here... (or was it dvxuser back then?)

[R. Schorman]

Do you think they allow Red Bricks on it? :smilewinkgrin:

Lovely jet. Part inspiration for the light "Camo" pattern on the Reduser logo..

I love how the camo is actually relevent to the jet and illustrative of its purpose! Great design.

[Jannard]

BTW... the camo pattern is the globe. See if you can identify the countries.

We never see any interior pics.... Do you have any you'd be willing to share, Jim?

Yes!

Great livery Jim, one of the best!

how about a ride ;-) I remember the snowboard that was offered as a prize early on, how about a competition for a ride on the RED jet?

Pick me up at ENGM anytime.

I love aircraft, and has been lucky to have one of the larger airlines in Scandinavia as my costumer, flown in the cockpit with R1, no problems with batteries.

[MichaelHalsell]

That was fun! Us small people always get a kick outta stuff like that. Cool beans.

[Nathan Garofalos]

BTW... the camo pattern is the globe. See if you can identify the countries.

Jim

That is VERY cool!

The first country I see is Italy, right on the door on the left side of the jet. From that point it points back towards Greece, then into Turkey... Going the opposite direction, we see France and Spain. It is all of Europe on the left side, then folding over the top of the jet we see the northern part of Europe?

I can't tell whats on the right side of the plane.

Its really hard to tell it is a world map, I wouldn't have know that unless you said something.

[Zakaree Sandberg]

good ol N2T.. Ive been sitting on the taxiway many times waiting for clearance, when N2T has gone off right in front of me, or down the line

[Jonathon Laing]

I REALLLY wana see some interior shots. But I don't know if Jim would want to share that with everyone. But I bet it's awesome!

[Mark Phelan]

Entity, Jim?

Do I win a chance to buy you dinner in Vegas this April?

Well all I can see is that the pilot are in France all the time... :thumbup:

[Andrew Walker]

There are many reasons why I love being a supporter of RED. Badass paint job on their jet just got added to my list.

[Jannard]

Can't show the interior (private). But the materials are carbon fiber and violin-amber fiddleback maple... you know, typical corporate style. :-)

Jim

[Karl Gustav H.]

I think I am sat somewhere on the spar between the two front windshield segments!

Apparently, the RAF sq. that flies the Global Express in the 'stan have adopted the red jet as an unofficial mascot.

[Felix K.]

I'm sitting in the top third of the door :)

Aargh! The picture messed up.

See the attached picture this time...

Ohh thats too bad, I'm sure it looks badass. We understand though if its private its private. Maybe a picture of your air hostess then? he he he... :emote_popcorn: :D

So the interior must be stripper poles, disco balls, and a giant heart shaped rotating bed?

heh heh... hardly.

[Felix K.]

Brad is confusing Jim with Tony Stark :) although... isn't the IronMan suit red?

[Erwin Vanderhoydonks]

Thanks for putting Belgium above the cockpit. Now we know your next destination...

[Brook Willard]

Never noticed that the "camo" was really a map... very cool.

[Ace]

... and we are hovering above front door of this N2T Inc. :)

Jim

That's the extra kick I liked when I first saw it. The camo is cool, but globe thing is creative.

Well, that explains Jim's amazing prescience in the field of digital cinema.... he's got access to a fully functioning* TARDIS!

* That is, one where the camouflage circuit is fully operational

Hehehe! :)

The front door is actually my country... Great!
