[QUOTE="Falkus, post: 3589461, member: 22634"] The pilots of the Institute plame at the airport introduced themselves as Tom Williams, and John Baker. Casual conversation revealed eventually that they used to fly for Oceanic Airlines, before they spotted a UFO and, through a convoluted series of events, wound up working for the Institute. The plane itself is a heavily modified LearJet 55, covered with an experimental polymer that can render the jet completely invisible to radar when a small electric charge is run through it.
