Jared Isaacman's Bombardier Global Express XRS, tail number N82EM, flew from the Space Florida Launch and Landing Facility (KTTS) in Titusville, Florida to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) on Tuesday, November 3, 2026. The flight departed at 23:14 UTC and landed at 01:00 UTC, spending 1 hour and 46 minutes in the air.
The great-circle distance between the two airports is 641 nautical miles, or 737 miles. The aircraft averaged 363 knots ground speed and reached a top speed of 494 knots. Its highest altitude during the flight was 41,025 feet. The flight burned an estimated 758 US gallons of fuel, producing about 7,285 kilograms of CO2, roughly equal to driving a car 18,032 miles. N82EM is an Ultra Long Range jet with a range of 6,160 nautical miles, a ceiling of 51,000 feet, and seating for up to 16 passengers.


This was the seventh tracked landing at Washington in the 24-flight window from October 18 to November 3. The previous landing at Washington was on November 2, one day before this flight. The aircraft's home base is Lehigh Valley International Airport in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Usual destinations on file include Washington Dulles International Airport and the Space Florida Launch and Landing Facility in Titusville. The most recent flights before this one included a Washington to Titusville leg on November 3, an Allentown to Washington leg on November 2, a Houston to Allentown leg on October 31, an Edwards to Houston leg on October 29, a Burbank to Edwards leg on October 29, a Camp Springs to Van Nuys leg on October 28, a Pittsburgh to Washington leg on October 27, and an Allentown to Pittsburgh leg on October 27.
Jared Isaacman founded Shift4, a payments company based in Allentown, after dropping out of high school. He also started Draken International, which trains fighter pilots using former military jets. He paid for and commanded two private SpaceX missions, Inspiration4 in 2021 and Polaris Dawn in 2024, where he made the first commercial spacewalk. He was confirmed as NASA administrator in late 2025. Allentown is the base for Shift4 and the owner company JDI Holdings LLC, which matches Isaacman's initials and hometown. Titusville is home to the Space Florida Launch and Landing Facility, which is used for SpaceX launches. Washington is home to NASA headquarters, where Isaacman works as administrator.
The departure airport in Titusville has a runway 15,001 feet long at an elevation of 10 feet. The arrival airport in Washington has a runway 7,169 feet long at an elevation of 15 feet. The distance from the home base in Allentown to the arrival airport is 131 nautical miles.

The longest leg in that period was from Camp Springs to Van Nuys on October 28, covering 2,007 nautical miles. The most common destinations in that window were Washington with six landings, Allentown with four landings, and New Century with two landings.
