Default Celebrity Planes Sort of OT

This is just a curiosity question. I was reading an article
about Angelina Jolie, the fact that she was a pilot was a pretty
big part of the article, they also pointed out that she owns her
own plane ( Cirrus SR22 ).

They had a picture of her flying the plane, and in the picture you
could see the panel, with the N number on the plane. Out of curiosity
I did a lookup on the N number, it shows the plane as being registered
to Cirrus aircraft, with an N number change pending.

Would it show up this way if she was leasing the plane, or is Cirrus
just letting her use the plane? Or maybe they Photoshopped the N number
in the picture so people with too much time on their hands over the
holidays would not look it up :-)



I saw her on the Tonight show a year or so ago, and she was talking about
how she is learning how to fly. However, I seem to remember reading
relatively recently that she is giving it up as being to dangerous now that
she is a mom.


I agree that being a mom is very dangerous! :-)
