Approved For Rel se 2 0 /03 16 GIA-RpP B095 4 OW00300064-7 3 January 1979 MEMORANDU FROM: . M FOR: Deputy Director for Administration Director of Central Intelligence SUBJECT: Executive Jet Transport for CIA 0 25X1 1. I certainly was impressed by the_Study on an Executive/ 25X1 Operational aircraft. Would you ask them to pursue it just a bit further: a. What would an approximate leasing cost be of something like a Lear Jet 56 or a Jet Star II or a Gulfstream II? b. Is it possible that somebody like NASA already has a leased aircraft which they would be willing to share--that is, we would pick up a proportionate part of their lease? c. What about the 186 surplus or excess aircraft for the 22 confiscated or seized aircraft. I suppose none of the surplus are likely to be satisfactory in quality, but what do the Drug Enforcement and Customs people do with confiscated aircraft after a period of time? Perhaps they are available for an inter-agency transfer at nominal or no cost? d. Could we explore quietly with ERDA, FAA and Customs what kind of leased aircraft they have and whether they would be interested in sharing a lease if we took one--in short, they already have some leases of their own but perhaps another quarter or half an aircraft might be something they would be interested in? 7 2 Jan. 1985 Approved For Release ?005/033/16: CIA-RDP80BQ1554R0033Oa3d664-7 Approved For ReISe 2005/03/16 CIA RDP80BO1554R0$3800300064-7 2. Would you also look at possible cost tradeoffs: a. e.g., I assume if we had a Gulfstream II, we could dispense with Gulfstream I. What does it cost us per year to run the Gulfstream I? b. e.g., What have we spent in Fiscal Year 1977 and Fiscal Y r 1978 for leased aircraft, i.e., from the USAF?
