As we learned in Part 1 of this series, Douglas County Commissioner George Teal doubled his VIP ticket to Dubai by making it refundable just days before his trip. This is a problem. Did George actually fly the tickets that he booked, or did her get a refund? It’s should be an easy question to answer, but George won’t reply. Things just aren’t adding up. Listen to find out why.

Ellie Reynold’s itinerary (someone knows their way around Canva!)

I can’t find the exhibitor list for the 2025 Dubai Air Show, it looks like it’s been taken down on the website. You can see on Ellie’s itinerary above that they don’t meet with Sodern. We also CORA’d any correspondence or communication between the board of county commissioners and Sodern. There was none.
