American-registered N881YV (ICAO:AC23C6) is a Boeing 767 Cargo plane (no windows) operated by 21 Air, LLC. The company was registered in 2014 to fly cargo from Orlando to Miami with two planes.
Two? How do you run a cargo company with 2 planes?

That's okay, don't be worried about their business; they're super busy, and do not just fly the Miami-Orlando cargo circuit as documented; they fly all over! They're into wet leasing. What's wet leasing?
Show this thread -
Wet leased aircraft provide short term leases of the aircraft, maintenance, crew, etc. so the lessee can just expense it and not "operate" the aircraft themselves. You know, like a shell company, without the fuss. https://www.jsfirm.com/21+Air+LLC/Greensboro-North+Carolina/17068/companyprofile …pic.twitter.com/Tm0L2A3laX

As documented on Wikipedia, Wet Leasing is common and sometimes used where the leasee cannot operate in a certain country; like Egypt/Israel.pic.twitter.com/0T6CVIoILv

(The X509 certificate used for their web site isn't signed by a trusted root, but mentions a "weitzelconsulting"; local web guy? Or German company? I'll leave that one up to someone else.)

Flights to Colombia and Venezuela (re)started January 11th 2019, and did you know under "Wet Leasing" the leasee is the one to provide the flight numbers? Well, Jan 11th they changed number formats; from CSBxxxx to CSBxxx (a 3 digit flight number, rather than 4; a new leasee?)

This is important because it strongly suggests Air 21 LLC entered a new agreement with *someone* to transport *stuff* starting mid-January, and since that time they've been bouncing back and forth to Colombia and Venezuela *extremely* frequently.

Can I confirm Air 21 is an cargo aircraft company the CIA is using to wet lease to hide any association? No. BUT, I am very sure they started flying under a new contact with a new customer Jan 11th, and since then have been flying almost exclusively to Colombia and Venezuela.

I'm sure there are lots of reasons for any company to want to lease a 767 cargo plane to move stuff to Colombia and Venezuela from Florida mid-January forward. Right?pic.twitter.com/RO18nT5713

...and if anyone is interested; the cargo plane that the Venezuelan military has accused of transporting arms into Venezuela is now arriving in Kingston,

I would like more detail on these 90 antennas for (mobile?) radios that were confiscated by the Venezuelan authorities. Anyone see/hear anything? Brand, model, etc..https://twitter.com/PalenciaEndes/status/1092877981347926016 …

PS, My bad on Jamaica. N881YV was headed right for it, but it stayed at 36,000ft (I should have noticed it wasn't on an approach, oops)

Does this confirm the claim by the Venezuelan Government that the US is using N881YV to ferry guns into the country?
No.
..but it does show a drastic uptick in traffic to VZ and CO from January 11th on.Show this thread -
So,
@eleevn just noticed some ppl at 21 Air LLC worked for companies that did rendition flights for the#CIA; remember they did nothing illegal, everyone works for one of those companies that takes people to CIA black sites worldwide sooner or later. https://twitter.com/eleevn/status/1093999410239938561 …pic.twitter.com/YmQeXfD1x3Show this thread - Show replies
