New Plane for Jimmy?

Here is the plane that Jimmy flew into Jamaica yesterday. Is it a new addition to his fleet? It's not one that has been seen being used by him before. (This is not the actual plane, just a picture of the same model.)

Here's a link to the web site for the Pilatus-12 aircraft that Jimmy just flew into the Bahamas. It's a beauty.

they're not bad, I think Air Canada's regionals use Pilatus models on their jumps into northern Ontario.

This shows a picture of the actual plane shown in the jamaica airport landing... You can see the registration # in the Jamaica news article you go to from the link to buffettnews.com.

It does not show up as registered to Jimmy. It's listed to EPPS AIR SERVICE INC in ATL, GA

At the Noblesville concert he mentioned that it was the Ian Fleming airport again. He had the Jamaica Mistaica Tee Shirt on, and the Jamaican flag was on the display for the song. Nobody shot this time. I think he was proud of the invitation to be the first after what they put him through. He played the Newton Musher video at the intermission too. That was really "cool"!

It's a BBJ, belongs to a Russian billionaire who was in town, I presume, for Microsoft's annual CEO Summit.
I work across the street from Boeing Field ("King County International Airport") and the tarmac was overflowing with BizJets this week, everything from small Learjets to several BBJs and all the way up to a 747 belonging to a Saudi prince.
