First, You Can Repo Jet Fighters?

A situation involving the fatal crash of a privately-owned fighter, an Albatros L-39 , in SE Alaska got much stranger with a raid of the hangers of Security Aviation in Anchorage and Palmer, by, get this:

the FBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Drug Enforcement Administration, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the IRS, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Air Force, Alaska State Troopers and the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force.

Security Aviation (owned by a former Alaska prosecutor; the name already says trouble) was trying to purchase a fleet of eight of these aircraft. Their site mentions nothing of this. One guy was arrested for "possession of a rocket pod." It also turns out that the crashed jet was jacked (!) in Ketchikan (!) by a repoman pilot (!) who worked for U.S. Customs (!) then promptly flew it into a mobile home, raising a huge fireball(!) The repo company was trying to steal back four of the jets (!) And now the FBI claims that the raid has nothing to do with the crash....right.

Supposedly there is some military training subcontracting aspect. But why the giant, multilocation raid on what seems to be a Pentagon contractor? Jet mercenaries? Secret right wing air ring? Again - KETCHIKAN? It's like sort of like finding a dozen, working privately held T-72 tanks in Monteray Bay with mysterious National Guard Contract.
