Page 7 / 55
Larry Eugene Morrison - Volume October 6, 2009 25 1 technician? 2 A. No, no. 3 Q. Okay. 4 A. You don't have to have a flight - a 5 pilots certificate to be a professional flight 6 ()Vow. I've got a turbo - a flight engineer turbo 7 jet rating, but you don't have to have a commercial ticket as long as you - the FAA recognizes your heavy 9 aircraft maintenance experience. 10 Q. So you're saying that if the FM recognizes 11 your heavy maintenance experience, I'm assuming that 12 means that you understand the ins and outs of airplanes 13 and you can work on them. 14 A. On heavy high performance aircraft, yes. 15 0. Then you can also fly them? 16 A. Sideways as a flight engineer. 17 Q. Explain. 18 A. On the older generation airliners there 19 was three pilots - there's a captain, a first 20 officer, and then the flight engineer is the 21 gentleman that sits sideways and maintains all the 22 systems. 23 Q. When you say. 'sits sideways? okay, I have 24 a — 25 A. Literally, you're physically sideways in 27 1 Q. Do you know why Epstein chose to buy that 2 particular 727 rather than one of the other mum 727s 3 that are made? 4 MR. GOLDBERGER: Form. 5 A. Because It was probably the finest one out 6 there -- 7 Q. Why? A. -- in as honesty. Its got a fully Paged 9 SIC interior with EFTS cockpit, and Limited's 10 reputation on the way that we maintained our aircraft 11 - It's the best one out there. 12 Q. Describe for me the interior - not talking 13 about the Epstein days, we're talking about the Wexner 14 days - describe for me the interior of the aircraft, and 15 keep in mind that I've only been on a commercial aircraft 16 where you don't see the pilots, there's a door, and then 17 everybody, you know, there's just a bunch of seats where 18 everybody sits there. 19 A. Correct. Right. 20 The aircraft — You enter the airplane, 21 It's got forward air stays, which most 727's don't, 21 so you enter the forward door on the left-hand side, 23 the forward entnAvay vestibule, and there's a door on 24 the left, which leads to the cockpit, and then 25 there's a door on the right which leads aft to the 26 1 the cockpit 2 0. So you're not Looking at the people that were 3 flying on the plane and you're not looking at the pilots, 4 you're actually literally sitting sideways. 5 A. I sit sideways at a panel, yes. 6 Q.

It 18 was already there, right? 19 A No, no, no. When you buy these aircraft - 20 oven a Gulfstream Mien you buy them it's just a 21 green hull, there's nothing in them, and you can 22 customize your Interior. 23 O. rm soy, we're miscommunicallrg somewhere. 24 and I'm sure its on me. 25 MR.

By "there" — 23 A. — b its motiun-wise and stuff. 24 Q By 'there aren't that many of these people out 25 there; you don't mean there's not that many people - 3 2 1 MR. EDWARDS: And I'm taking the dame for 2 it - right away. 3 MR. REINHART: Take that. Ed. 4 MR. EDWARDS: Alright. 5 BY MR. EDWARDS: 6 O. My understanding - and piano correct me when 7 Mt wrong, because I know I am - Wexner has this 727 and 8 he designs it in a certain way. 9 A. Uh-huh. 10 Q. And then you come to work for Epstein — 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. — vitro buys the same 727. Your testimony. as 13 I'm understanding it, is: It's basicaly the same floor 14 plan as Wexners Poor plan. To me, it should be the 15 exact same because he bought the same plane. 16 A. No, he — You're misunderstanding. 17 O. I figured. is A. VVhat I was stating is — You were — Ines 19 answering the question in regards to. "Is this 30 unusual to have this many compartments and closed 21 doors and bulkheads and things?' 22 What I was trying to state was: No, ins 23 not unusual - because The Limited even Sited Ihe 24 floor plan solemn in their old airplane that they 25 sold to Mr. Epstein. They duplicated it in their new EFTA01110278
Page 9 / 55
Larry Eugene Morrison - Volume I October 6, 2009 33 I airplane - see what I'm saying? That's all l was — 2 Q. So they didn't keep the floor plan. They 3 actually took it out and they restructured the floor plan 4 to basically match that old floor plan. 5 A. Well, no. When you -- When you buy a 6 Boeing business jet -- 7 Q. Yes. A. — It comes with nothing inside. It's a 9 tube. Nothing's in there. You design - have 10 designers design your interior and then a fabricator 11 or a facility such as Page Avjet to instal this 12 interior. 13 Q. Right 14 A. What I was Just trying to state was that 15 The Limited liked their old floor plan in the old 16 airplane so well - it worked so well for them - that 17 they duplicated it and had that same interior 113 installed in the new aircraft - same floor plan 19 installed on the new plan. 20 Q. So Epstein didn't buy the exact same plane. 21 He bought the same type of plane. 22 A. Well, more modern. He bought a 737, 23 right. 24 Q. Got it. 25 A.

The floor plan's in the plane. 24 A Right. Mr. Wexner replaced the airplane 25 that Mr. Epstein bought with a new airplane and he 36 1 A. Yes. 2 Q. That's where I had a problem. 3 How many times have you been on Mr. Wexner's 4 opine 5 A. The new? 6 MR. REINHART: Clarify which one you're 7 talking about. 8 BY MR. EDWARDS: 9 Q. Before you ever met Mr. Epstein. 10 A. I can't say. I mean, over the years? 11 Q. Numerous times? 12 A. Oh, I was his tight engineer. You mean 13 when I was still employed by him? 14 Q. Yes. 15 A. Yes. I was the flight engineer. I 16 don't -- 17 O. So as a flight engineer, every tine the plane 18 leaves the ground, do you leave the ground with it? 19 A. No. We had another engineer also. 20 O. So what percentage of times do you leave the 21 ground in the airplane when the plane leaves the ground? 22 A. For who? 23 O. For Mr. Wexner. 24 A.

Let him finish 10 his answer. 11 MR. EDWARDS: I'm sorry. I thought you 12 were finished. 13 MR. PIKE: This is Michael Pike. Let him 14 finish his question because, keep In mind - you 15 finish your question, let him finish his answer 16 - keep In mind, rm on the phone, so I'm having 17 a hard time hearing his response in the 18 background. 19 MR. EDWARDS: You're actually on the other 20 end of the table. Do you want us to try to move 21 the phone closer? 22 MR. PIKE: Yes, that would be good. 23 MR. EDWARDS: 19 do that for you, man. 24 rm sorry.

But the hangar we're talking about is in Ohio. 13 A. Yeah, Lane Aviation. 14 O. You would see them basically on a day-to-day 15 basis because the aircraft that you were a technician 16 fOr — 17 A. Right. 18 Q. — was very close in proximity to the aircraft 19 that they were piloting. 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. They approach you at sane point in time and 22 say what specifically? 23 A. I can't remember the specific 24 conversations, but it was like, you know, asked me f1 25 I would be interested in, if Jeffrey bought the 727 66 MR. PIKE: Not a problem. I've objected 2 to form a couple of runes. I'm not quite sure 3 If that was even heard, but that's neither here 4 nor there. MR. EDWARDS: Wee say the last ten questions you objected to form. I got you. 7 What was my last question. Pike? You don't even remember. 9 MR. REINHART: You asked him conversations 10 he had with Larry Visoski and Dave Rodgers about 11 how they come came to work for Epstein. 12 MR. EDWARDS: Good. 13 A. I really never queried them on how they 14 come to work for Jeffrey. I think Dave was hired 15 first and he brought - this is all speculation - and, 16 I think. he brought Larry on board. 17 O. So as far n you know, however you know, David 18 Rodgers was the first Epstein contact and then Larry 19 Visoskl rode it In. 20 A. The way I understand, yeah. 21 Q. How did you become involved in the 22 three-person train to Epstein? 23 A. When It became apparent that Jeffrey, or 24 Mr. Epstein, was going to buy the 727, Larry 25 approached me, that If I would want to, you know, 68 I being, you know, the flight engineer and help them, 2 you know, get the flight department going, and I told 3 them I would. 4 O. And wily did you say "yes" considering that you 5 had a boss in Leslie Wexner wto vas seemingly pretty good 6 to you fox the last ten years? 7 A. Oh, he's excellent. O. Yes. 9 A No, fine flight department and Mr. Wexner 10 is a line person. 11 Q. Right 1.2 A. The reason being is. you know. I already 13 staled this I think twice before, was that I wanted 14 to be abbe to continue to fly and that would give me 15 the opportunity to continue to fly as a flight 16 engineer and the challenge of starting this airplane. O. Right. I didn't Ignore you. I heard you say 18 that. but then I also heard you say he brought a brand 19 new plane. 20 A. It was ally a two-man airplane -- 21 O. So then he woukl have *- 22 A. — and the modem aircraft could only have 23 two pilots, right 24 O. Got you. I understand. So they approach you with this prospect of the EFTA01110287
