I checked FlightAware this morning to see if a G-IV that came into Falcon yesterday (http://flightaware.com/resources/registration/N619KK) had departed, and I noticed it was registered to Virtucon LLC.

That's right.  VIRTUCON.

Please forgive the blind assumption, but this was an evil G-IV, right?

Did it have a laser mounted on top by any chance?  :o

There are lots of crazy ones out there, particularly the LLC's which are often created just to own an airplane.

Some examples:

N18358 Life Is A Beech LLC
N9578L Old Farts Fly LLC
N30550 Potato In The Front LLC
N19BB Rubber Chicken Airlines LLC (they have three airplanes)
N9285C Red Hot Chili Piper LLC (on at PA-28)
N300LX Dog House Aviation LLC
N5228X Mad Scientist Aviation LLC
N17867 Mad Cow Soaring LLC

Just a few I found on a quick look through.

I guess some airplane owners have a sense of humor.
