Jerry Jones's Gulfstream V, registered as N1DC, was tracked making a brief 21-minute hop from Santa Barbara Municipal Airport to Camarillo International Airport shortly after 1 a.m. on August 8th. The aircraft climbed to just 3,000 feet and reached a maximum ground speed of 268.6 knots during the short coastal repositioning. As always, we track the aircraft, not the person — so no confirmation exists that Jerry Jones was aboard, but the movement invites speculation about the owner's whereabouts this week.
If aboard, Jerry Jones would have arrived in the Camarillo area early Saturday morning, positioning himself conveniently near the Los Angeles basin just as the final week of the World Cup reaches its crescendo. Per AP News on August 6th, the 83-year-old Cowboys owner has not attended any of the nine World Cup matches hosted at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, with reports noting he and his wife Gene often depart for his yacht between June's offseason workouts and late July's training camp. The semifinal between Spain and France, scheduled for Tuesday at his own stadium, would be his first World Cup appearance there — and AP notes that Jerry Jones had been expected to finally show up after missing Lionel Messi's record-setting performances and Portugal star Cristiano Ronaldo's final World Cup game.
