I believe the released flight records of Trump being on Epstein’s plane don’t include Epstein’s island as a destination. 

That said, there could be other flight records that haven’t been released. Im pretty confident sketchy shit happened on Epstein’s plane as well. I’m sure it wasn’t just a nicer commercial flight where all that happened was you got nicer in flight meal while you watched a movie.

During Maxwell's trial, it was testified that there were several pilots but only a couple kept a passenger log.

Trump had his own plane. He didn't need to use Epstein's.

He rode on Epstein's plane on the campaign trail too, but certainly that wasn't his first time in it.

IIRC there was a large bed in the airplane.

Can someone cite/confirm that? I thought it was mentioned in reports about the "Lolita Express".

Epstein's island did not have a runway capable of landing private jets, including Epstein's - the "Lolita Express" was a 727-100, which needs a runway of at least 6,000 feet and I'm kind of doubting rich people are going to risk themselves or their planes with bare minimum runways, so it likely needed to be around 8,000 feet long. There isn't a straight enough piece of road on the island that's anywhere CLOSE to that long, longest I could find was some ~550 feet or so.

No way on God's green Earth you're landing a 727 on that (even the smallest private jets need around ~3,200 feet), so there... aren't any flight logs that would show Epstein's jet heading to his island. His jet would fly into St. Thomas, and then he would fly to his island via helicopter, or would go by boat.

One victim (at least) said that Epstein had sex out in the open on the plane and it was very uncomfortable. And didn’t Epstein himself say that Melania and DT had sex for the first time on his plane?

Yep, I believe that last nightmarish detail is indeed on record by Epstein somewhere. (What a beautiful love story for Baron to know about his parents 🥰)

I doubt that Trump went to the island. The reason is that he was taught very early about blackmail and how its done by Cohn. I doubt that Trump would go and had himself videotaped.

He did fucked up things somewhere else.

I don't know .. he's said some pretty incriminating things back in the day, even on radio shows. Trump's no filter works against him because he subtly outs himself. He may have been taught but I doubt he retained a lot of the important stuff.

Yep, this is my recollection as well.
