Are we sure the private plane is registered to a hunting comapny??

According to this

It's registered to

OwnerBLACK TAIL LLC
IOWA CITY , IA, US


If I do a search for Black Tail, there is a company in the North West who doesn't appear to be that big.

But if I search the Secratary of State site..

Solon Iowa is 17 minutes from Iowa City

Then if you see who owns that address... it's owned by a guy who owns a trucking company in Iowa who has donated big money to Iowa and Iowa State
The Black Tail LLC address comes up with a residence owned by Michael Gerdin. Gerdin is the CEO of Heartland Express. The Gerdin family donated $7mil to the Iowa State school of business in 2017. Probably not a lot of love there for the University of Iowa.
