Additional irony is that the plane was registered to Anchorage-based communications company GCI, and was en route from a GCI company lodge to a fishing camp. This is a politician that incoherently argued against net neutrality, obviously not understanding the first thing about network transmissions and the implications of what he argued. He was a bought and woo-ed tool of the telecom company and one of the most blatantly corrupt politicians that I have ever witnessed. The same lobby eventually led to his death.
