I doubt he was on board for that flight.
Generally, flights like that one exist because the airplane is somewhere other than the most convenient place for the owner to take off from, so the crew repositions the plane in a better location for a more convenient pick up.
I don't think that this really invalidates your overall conclusion or anything, just wanted to point that out.

- jrockway 3y agoCommercial airlines routinely move planes from JFK to LGA at night. There is a popular ATC recording of one not having the paperwork to fly IFR, so they want VFR instead. Mildly amusing twist on a common operation.
