I live near Logan and I was listening to ATC ((like i normally do when i do my homework)) and I keep hearing the callsign Flagship. Who is that? Today i drove by the cargo terminal and saw UPS and DHL. I know DHL has the callsign DHL. I looked up UPS and it said UPS so who else could be Flagship?? Is it an exec. jet or buisness flight?? I am really curious!!
