US lawmakers question Google's Spirit data deal

Over 120 US lawmakers have raised concerns over Google's planned USD10 million acquisition of Spirit Airlines's internal data to train artificial intelligence (AI) models, urging the technology company to protect employee privacy. In a letter led by Senator Elizabeth Warren and Representative Steven Horsford, the lawmakers called on Google to exclude employee information from the transaction to the greatest extent possible. The proposed sale, part of Spirit's bankruptcy liquidation process, includes approximately 100 million emails, 500 million Microsoft Teams messages, spreadsheets, calendars, and other operational and employee records.
Google, which won an auction for the data in August 2026, said personal information would either be excluded or de-identified by an independent third party before being transferred. A court-appointed privacy ombudsman has recommended approving the transaction after excluding personal information belonging to approximately 97 million Spirit customers. A US bankruptcy court is scheduled to consider the sale on October 14.

Phenix Jet Cayman adds first Global 8000, to add 2nd in 1Q27
Phenix Jet Cayman (CPJ, Grand Cayman Island) has added its first Global 8000 and expects to take delivery of a second aircraft of the type in the first quarter of 2027, the company announced, following plans outlined in mid-2024 for two Global 8000s to be delivered in 2026.

Phenix Jet Cayman (CPJ, Grand Cayman Island) has added its first Global 8000 and expects to take delivery of a second aircraft of the type in the first quarter of 2027, the company announced, following plans outlined in mid-2024 for two Global 8000s to be delivered in 2026.
Phenix Jet Cayman's first Global 8000 is a 2025-built aircraft, registered in the Cayman Islands as VP-CUU (msn 70253) in early September. The ultra-long-range jet became active on September 10 with a flight between Hartford Bradley and Boston under the company's 'CPJ' code, followed by a sector to Tokyo Haneda. The jet has since operated primarily out of Bangkok Don Mueang.
This Global 8000 was originally registered in the United States as N123AB and delivered to United States-based financial institution Beal Bank in March. Based at Dallas Love Field, the aircraft remained active until late June before ferrying to Hartford Bradley on August 24. Beal Bank continues to operate a 2006-built Global Express XRS.
Currently, four aircraft actively operate under Phenix Jet Cayman's 'CPJ' code, including the newly inducted Global 8000, a Global 7500, following the retirement of another unit in late 2025, a B737-700(BBJ), and a G280 added in mid-2026.
Phenix Jet Cayman is part of United States-based Phenix Jet, whose Part 135 certificate comprises a Global 6000, a Global 6500, five Global 7500s, a G550, a G650(ER), and two G650ERs.
Both Phenix Jet and Phenix Jet Cayman privately manage other aircraft and are owned by Japan-based Sojitz Corporation, which announced in late 2025 an order for two brand-new Global-series jets, namely a Global 6500 and a Global 8000, for deployment under a fractional ownership programme.

Four Corners Aviation (ULA, Dallas Addison) has been rebranded as Mente Aviation as part of a broader consolidation plan by sister company Mente Group to bring all aviation businesses under a unified brand structure. Under the strategy, a single website will serve both Mente Aviation and Mente Group, with Mente Aviation receiving a new logo and Mente Group adopting a slightly modified one.
“Mente has built significant recognition and credibility in business aviation, so it makes sense to put the full strength of the company behind the name that resonates in the marketplace,” said Brian Proctor, founder, president, and CEO of Mente Group. Mente Aviation provides aircraft management and charter services. The company's Part 135-certified fleet currently comprises a Learjet 45XR, a Phenom 300E, and two G650ERs.
