Thanks to for emojis! Couple of things. -These are the aircraft currently registered to the teams. Some may no longer be flying. But the FAA currently recognizes them as being registered to them. -Many smaller teams utilize aircraft of bigger teams for transport to and from the tracks.

Feb 27, 2014 - Hendrick began his NASCAR team in 1984 and it currently includes several of the top drivers in the Sprint Cup series, including six-time series champion Jimmie Johnson, four-time series champ Jeff Gordon, 2014 Daytona 500 winner Dale Earnhardt Jr. And Casey Kahne.

Roush's 727s at one point were used for this purpose. But I believe Ganassi's are also done for this purpose as there is no way they are bringing that many people to and from the track every week. -Some driver's planes are registered to the team. Interestingly enough, Martin Truex's plane is registered to Hendrick's flight department. -Registrations are pretty interesting. Look for the 'N' followed by a series of letters and numbers. Dutchwest federal airtight manual. All relate to the team or driver in some way.

Ganassi's are former DEI aircraft, you can tell by the Dale Earnhardt References including the '3' and all end in 'DE'. Hendrick all end in RH for Rick, Gibbs are all JG, Kyle Busch is KB, Bowyer is CB, DH is Denny Hamlin, Jr is well, self explanatory. -Finally this isn't everybody.

I get that I missed plenty. But some fly through fractional jet owners which means they are only partial owners but flown through NetJets or something similar. Some are just hard to find. For tax and liability purposes most register their planes under a separate corporation. It's under some dummy corporation like Roush Air. I know guys like Chase own their own plane, but I just couldn't find anything on them. Before McMurray was sponsored by Cessna he had a Lear 31, big step up going from a Lear to a Citation X.

He and Allmendinger came into work one day after a race heading to the west coast. Got to fuel that one. Gibbs also had a Lear 31, fueled it at my old job and it was in maintenance when I started my new job. Before Jr had his Citation he had a Lear 60, it was at my new job for maintenance a week before I started.

Keselowski got his Lear 45 painted at my work. Since I worked there he stopped in once heading west. I missed him and Logano by 15 minutes. I was pissed.

The old DEI ERJs have come into work a few times. Once when they were at Kansas and weather was moving in to they repositioned it to our place for the night. The other brought in kids for some science competition. Brian France's plane came into my old work with his mother for some art auction.

Talked to the pilots and got to go inside. Bruton Smith's plane came in for maintenance few years back. Gene Haas came in looking to buy a new plane last year. And Barney Visser was in last year stopping through. I think those are all the NASCAR planes i've been around.

A few updates / additional information regarding the planes featured: • Roush's Plane (N6JR) - this is the plane that Roush crashed at Oshkosh in 2010. Apparently while landing he attempted to do a go-around to avoid another plane and stalled the aircraft. A go-around generally requires the pilot to apply full power, however Roush only applied 1/3 of that. While trying to gain altitude, the plane stalled (stopped producing sufficient lift), and.

Important note: Jack was seriously hurt in the crash and ultimately lost his left eye because of it. There is a significant amount of blood from Jack's face in the video - consider this your warning.

• Haas is a big fan on CanadaJet/Bombardiers. I believe that Gene has recently purchased a GlobalAir (way nicer, longer distance variant) for his own personal use. • Ganassi's DEI Livery #2 & 3 are the same plane. • • - unlike other drivers who are passengers, Carl has his pilots license and is rated to fly this plane.

• - The plane is currently for sale and you can see a full aircraft tour • • • •.

NASCAR Corporate Jet Fleet These 3 jets are part of the NASCAR / International Speedway corporate fleet. The 2 jets were spotted departing On July 30, 2009. NASCAR has other aircraft but these are executive class business jets that the top brass fly on.

It must have been a pretty important meeting to have these 3 jets in service. • N100R is a 2008 Hawker Beechcraft 900XP. • N300R is a 2004 Raytheon 400A.

• is a 2002 Dassault Falcon 50. These jets are registered to Real Air Leasing, a NASCAR related company headquartered at 1801 International Speedway Boulevard., Daytona Beach, Florida.

This traffic is waiting to take off at after the Sprint Cup race at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
