Nearly 90 flights linked to Jeffrey Epstein reportedly arrived at and departed from UK airports, some with British women onboard who allege they were abused by the convicted child sex offender.

Analysis by the BBC found three British women who were allegedly trafficked appear in Epstein’s records of flights in and out of the UK and other documents related to the late disgraced billionaire. The flight logs were among thousands of court documents and papers released by Epstein’s estate that have been made public over the past year.

The BBC said it had uncovered 87 flights linked to Epstein – including many that were previously unknown – arriving or departing from UK airports between the early 1990s and 2018.

The broadcaster said unidentified “females” were listed among the passengers travelling into and out of the UK, while 15 of the UK flights took place after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for soliciting sex from a minor. US lawyers representing hundreds of Epstein victims told the BBC it was “shocking” that there had never been a “full-scale UK investigation” into his activities in the country.

is the fact that he lent / rented his jet out for private trips. Like to Clinton for lectures in Europe.
Lend / rent helps to offset the costs of maintenance of the jet, and is tax deductible by the person borrowing it, if proven to be for business use.

When reading the flight logs - which show passenger, origin and destination, pay attention to those locations, and if there was a fairly quick turn around (like giving a lecture, then flying back the next day). And possibly check to see what the event, if there was one, was.
It's the flights to Epstein's 2 pedo islands, and to FL (Mar a Lago), that should be paid attention to.

But the lending / renting should be all vetted carefully, before making assumptions. Plus you may find that certain parties rented the jets to travel for under the table business deals. That could be some huge leads..
