In 2001 they hired another pilot because of the boeing airplane upgrade. EPSTEIN or a secretary from New York would call RODGERS or VISOSKI and tell them what time EPSTEIN wants to leave. VISOSKI is asked about the documents that he maintains as a pilot: FLIGHT LOG: VISOSKI describes the flight log to be anytime the plane flew, it would get documented in this log. The cycles of the engine and the start and stop time would be documented on a spreadsheet. This does not contain information on passengers. PASSENGER MANIFEST: VISOSKI states this would be filled out after every flight by whoever was the captain that day. The co-pilot would assist in the rear of the plane. Sometimes the manifest was documented after the plane took off. If VISOSKI knew the names of the passengers VISOSKI would write them down. It was usually the same people that the pilots knew. Sometimes EPSTEIN would introduce new people. The pilots were more concerned about the head count and the weight of the persons. This would be a word document containing the date, takeoff and landing time. There would be 1 page for each flight. RODGERS was responsible for turning these documents into the office. VISOSKI never retained documents. These documents would go to New York. VISOSKI kept his own personal flight log which had his hours and destinations. The papers and binders of records were kept in the Palm Beach office and then were eventually transferred to the New York office. They were given to IIII, about 6-9 months of binders at a time to transfer to New York. They needed to keep track of how many days EPSTEIN was in a particular location. In the mid-2000's all the records were turned over to EPSTEIN's attorney JACK GOLDBERGER by RODGERS. VISOSKI only knew of the originals; he didn't know of copies. In 2008 there were about 5 years of built up records in Palm Beach that were getting faxed. Around 2008/2009 they stopped putting passenger names on the logs. 3527-005 Page2 oft; SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00009906 EFTA00159713 FD-302a (Rev. 54-ID) 500-NY-3027571 CominualianoM402of (U) Interview/Proffer of LARRY VISOSKI O, 10/07/2020 " my 3 of B Around 2010/2011 EPSTEIN tells VISOSKI and RODGERS to stop putting passenger names and only put EPSTEIN on passenger manifest and sheets.
