FBI Director Kash Patel enjoys access to a litany of professional perks, among them use of a Gulfstream G550 jet, a 15-passenger luxury aircraft owned by the Department of Justice that he has reportedly taken to visit his aspiring country musician girlfriend.

Unfortunately for Patel, tracking flights is legal, easy, and an important tool of government transparency.
