14 Epstein.
15 O. So there's no real, other than yourself --
16 Well, tell me if I'm wrong: I understand that you did
17 some work for Mr. Wexner related to his aircraft and you
18 did some work for Mr. Epstein. which we haven't yet got
19 to. but you did some work for him too. Are there any
20 other people that have that type of relationship with
21 both pathos?
22 A. No. I'm sorry, resay that.
23 O. Okay. You've already told us that you were
24 the aircraft technician for Mr. Wexner.
25 A. One of them. One of several, yes.
22
1 we're talking about 15. 20 years ago - how often was Mr.
2 Wexner personally al that location at the Limited
3 offices?
4 A. I have no idea.
O. But any time you needed to talk to him. that's
6 where he would be?
7 A. Yeah, and I usually went to Charlie
8 Hinson.
9 O. Who's Charlie Hinson?
10 A. He was the president of the stores. He
11 basically was my go-between for these aircraft
12 completions for the design.
13 O. And you mentioned the Gullstream as an
14 aircraft Did you also serve as a technician for other
15 aircrefts that were owned by Mr. Wexner?
16 A. Right but not Mr. Wexner. They're owned
17 or operated by Limited Stores.
18 O. Limited Stores?
19 A. Right. Yes.
20 O. What did you do for them?
21 A. Same maintenance.
22 O. Did you ever fly in them?
23 A. On the Gullstreams in the early days we
24 used flight mechanics, especially on international
25 flights. 24
1 O. One of them. Then you also have knowledge
2 about Mi. Epstein and some relationship with Mr. Epstein.
3 A. Correct.
4 O. Are there any other pilots. aircraft
5 technicians, people like that that you know of to have a
6 relationship with both Mr. Wexner and Epstein?
7 A. No. no.
8 O. Do you knew how Mr. Wexner met Mr. Epstein?
9 A. No.
10 O. How long - if you started in 1988 how long
11 did you slay with Mr. Wexner and/or The Limited?
12 A. January of YR.
13 O. Why did you stop?
14 A. Because what we were talking before, you
15 know, I wanted to continue flying. They bought a
16 BBJ. which is a two-pilot aircraft, and I wanted to
17 continue flying. Mr. Epstein bought the 727 and
18 offered me a position to continue flying and, you
19 know, basically sot up the airplane for his flight
20 department because they hadn't had any previous large
21 aircraft experience.
22 O. I missed something. It wasn't your fault, it
23 was mine.

2 A. No, no.
3 O. Okay.
4 A. You don't have to have a flight a

6 engineer. I've got a turbo a (fight engineer turbo
7 jet rating, but you don't have to have a commercial
8 ticket as long as you • the FAA recognizes your heavy
9 aircraft maintenance experience.
10 O. So you're saying that if the FM recognizes
11 your heavy maintenance experience, I'm assuming that
12 means that you understand the ins and outs of airplanes
13 and you can work on them.
14 A. On heavy high performance aircraft, yes.
15 O. Then you can also fly them?
16 A. Sideways as a flight engineer.
17 O. Explain.
3.43 A. On the older generation airliners there
19 was three pilots - there's a captain, a first
20 officer, and then the flight engineer is the
21 gentleman that sits sideways and maintains all the
22 systems.
23 O. When you say. "sits sideways: okay, I have
24 a —
25 A. Literally, you're physically sideways in 27
1 O. Do you know why Epstein chose to buy that
2 particular 727 rather than one of the other million 727s
3 that are made?
4 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form.
5 A. Because it was probably the finest one out
6 the
7 O. Why?
8 A. -- in all honesty. It's got a fully Paged
9 STC interior with EMS cockpt. and Limited's
10 reputation on the way that we maintained our aircraft
11 - Its the best one out there.
12 O. Describe for me the interior • I'm not talking
13 about the Epstein days, we're talking about the Wexner
14 days describe for me the interior of the aircraft, and
15 keep in mind that I've only been on a commercial aircraft
16 where you donl see the pilots. there's a door, and then
17 everybody, you know, there's just a bunch of seats where
18 everybody sits there.
19 A. Correct. Right.
20 The aircraft You enter the airplane,
21 it's got forward air slays. which most 727's don't,
22 so you enter the forward door on the left-hand side.
23 the forward entryway vestibule, and there's a door on
24 the left, which leads to the cockpit, and then
25 there's a door on the right which leads aft to the

2 O. So you're not looking at the people that were
3 flying on the plane and you're not looking at the pilots.
4 yottre actually literally sitting sideways.
S A. I sit sideways at a panel, yes.
6 O. What's your job?
7 A. Maintain all the aircraft systems - the
• hydraulffs, fuel management, pressurization.
9 environmental controls.
10 O. That's not done by the pilots.
11 A. Now.
12 O. But if you've done that long enough and FAA is
13 aware of your credentials in that respect, then you also
14 could be credentlaled to be a pilot as well?
15 A. Well, sure, yeah, yeah. If that's a
16 career choice you wish to take.
17 O. And was that?
18 A. No, no. I was perfectly satisfied with my
19 position as a flight engineer and Director of
20 Maintenance.
21 O. What year did you say Epstein bought the 727
22 that was once owned by Wexner?
23 A. I don't know when the actual transition
24 took place, but when I came - shortly around the
25 period that I came on board In . January of bl. 28

2 O. What's the forward salon? Sorry.
3 A. Forward seating area.
4 O. And is it set up basically the way that I'm
5 picking it - in that there are 25 or 26 rows and they're
6 numbered A through E?
1 A. No. no. its a corporate configuration.
8 O. Which means nothing to me, so help me.

1 0. Who directed the design ot that plane?
2 A. It would have been Mr. Wexner. I mean, it
3 was -- The layout has not changed.
4 0. The layout has not changed; when you say
5 that, you mean 'from the time that I first got in it and
6 I was under the guise of 'under the employment of
7 Wexner to the time I've been on it since with Epstein.
Es the configuration is the same'
9 A. Essentially, yes. We removed one chair
10 and one small table that was an annoyance and that's
11 it, but it's identical to what The Limited used.
12 0. Are there any blocked off areas to where if
13 you're standing in the middle of the plane you can't see
14 certain areas of the plane"
15 A. There are pocket bulkheads. Yeah. there's
16 dividers between the sections.
17 O. How big aro these dividers and where are they?
18 A. Well, there's a divider - the forward

17 they duplicated it and had that same interior
18 installed in the new aircraft • same floor plan
