Winklevoss twins flew N533WE from an airfield near Griffin, Georgia, to Greenbrier Valley Airport in West Virginia on June 2, then conducted a 13-minute local hop out of and back into the same mountain airport. The brief flight, reaching only 4,800 feet and 207 knots, appears to be a functional pattern exercise or a repositioning between nearby private hangars, not a cross-country trip.

The same week, Gemini Trust Company faces a closed-door arbitration hearing in New York over a shareholder derivative suit filed in 2026 after the exchange’s September IPO, per court records reviewed by Bloomberg this week. The suit alleges fiduciary lapses tied to the twins’ control of Gemini’s corporate structure and the $5 million CFTC settlement paid in January 2025. Greenbrier, home to The Greenbrier resort and a growing private-aviation community, has become a recurring base for the twins outside their Teterboro and Los Angeles hubs.

Recent flights confirm the pattern: Tyler and Cameron have moved N533WE through Alabama, Georgia, and West Virginia in the past week, with no westward trips. The choice to remain at Greenbrier during the arbitration signals a deliberate withdrawal from the New York media glare, letting lawyers handle the procedural hearing while the twins hold court in the Allegheny Mountains.
