UGA with the trashy new money paint job typical


Must've hit up an ATL customs shop for that candy paint

Nope. What you see there baw is 5th generation radar absorbing paint, for when they're hauling bagmen and need to turn off their transponders.

N204MS is the school's newly acquired Lear 45, it replaces the Hawker 400 (Beechjet) we had previously.

Dang, where did MSU get all those planes? Nice collection...especially that last one.



MSU has about 10 aircraft. Most are used for research purposes. MSU's Raspet Flight Research Lab produced the first all composite aircraft in the world. Honda also developed their first aircraft at MSU in the 80's, it later became the Hondajet, it was certified just a few years ago.


The Stearman was the biplane in the flyover video from their 2000's. The school President was flying that plane, Doc Fogelsong.

As someone who's been in a plane crash before, this triggers me.

Not being biased because I'm a Dawg fan but UGA's plan is the best one.

UGA wins this one in a landslide. A few of them, I would not even think about getting on.

That definitely looks like our King Air 350 although, it doesn't do the cabin justice. They fly in and out of Owens .... I saw them when I was flying out earlier in the week.

Faculty bitches when they tried to put the logo/mascot on the tail.

State actually owns their planes. Most of the planes associated with other schools are booster’s planes. They loan them to their school to give them a false sense of prosperity.

Texas A&M is the only university, including the service academies, with graduates currently flying for both the Navy Blue Angels and the USAF Thunderbirds demonstration teams. Lol..they got the coolest jets.

State has a state of the art flight lab and a de facto University airport (STF, Bryan Field). They have some nice aircraft.

UGA doesnt actually own a plane, they just charter. Not sure why the op's photo has that one.

ETA, The UGA plane photo'd in the OP is a F1 drivers plane.

this was UGA's actual plane as of last year

It’s a booster’s plane. Again, not registered with the university.
