Email from Lawrance Visoski, Chief Pilot of JEGE Inc., to Jeffrey Epstein proposing pilot candidates and operational solutions to facilitate a Boeing 727 aircraft sale to Tarek El Sayed in Qatar, referencing Donald Trump's former pilot Robert Breslin.
Summary
Lawrance Visoski writes to Epstein seeking approval to contact Tarek El Sayed about pilot crew availability for a stalled Boeing 727 aircraft sale destined for Qatar operations. Visoski proposes three qualified pilot candidates: Robert Breslin (former Chief Pilot for Donald Trump with Boeing 727/757 experience), James Bartakowski (Middle East and Africa charter operations specialist), and Bruce Jafahri (current Boeing 727 captain with Doha experience). Visoski emphasizes the aircraft's condition and growing charter market opportunities in Qatar to encourage El Sayed to reconsider the purchase.
