N560TW's Sept 10 Scottsdale-Provo Turnaround (Claims)
:::caution Attributed claims only Tom Lewis and the T.W. Lewis Foundation are accused of nothing. A private jet flying a multi-stop day trip is what private jets do. The person raising this is asking for tips, not stating a finding, and this page treats it that way. :::

| The claim | A TPUSA-donor-linked jet reportedly landed at Provo the morning of the assassination and turned around almost immediately |

| First surfaced | Stated on Owens' live broadcast; undated in source |
| Rests on | Public flight-tracking data, correctly reported |

What is alleged
Candace Owens said on her live broadcast that she is "now very interested in" tail N560TW. In her words: "It departed on the morning of September 10th from Scottsdale, Arizona, and landed in Provo at 10:06 AM. It then immediately turned around and departed for Santa Barbara... then back to Scottsdale by 12:44 PM. Somebody saw something." The aircraft is a Cessna Citation XLS, and the shape of the itinerary — land, sit briefly, leave — is what investigators describe as a drop-off or pickup rather than a trip.
The connective tissue is ownership. The aircraft is reported owned by T.W. Lewis Aviation LLC, tied to the T.W. Lewis Foundation, which publicly lists Turning Point USA as a partner on its own website. Tom Lewis reportedly shared a stage with Charlie Kirk at an ASU event in 2023. That places the aircraft inside the donor-pressure thread running through this investigation — the reporting that Kirk was losing major donors over his refusal to stay "pro-Israel" and over his refusal to cancel Tucker Carlson, and his own reported message that he had "no choice but to leave the pro Israel cause." Investigators also connect it to a same-day Arizona-to-Provo pattern they allege for the separate tail N40JD.
Owens' actual framing matters here and is often lost in the retelling: she is requesting tips. She and the amplifying researcher are asking ground crew, pilots and witnesses in Arizona, Utah and California who was aboard. That is a question, not an accusation, and no answer has been produced.
The ordinary explanation
A Citation XLS flying Scottsdale → Provo → Santa Barbara → Scottsdale across a single morning is an utterly typical light-jet day-trip pattern. That is precisely what private business jets are chartered and owned to do, and short ground times reflect passenger drop-offs on a multi-stop itinerary rather than evasion. Read the same track without the context and it is indistinguishable from a thousand other Western-US business days.
The timing works against the claim rather than for it. The aircraft landed at 10:06 am — more than two hours before Charlie Kirk was shot — and had departed Utah before it happened. An aircraft that leaves before the event is a poor candidate for a role in it. It was also fully transponder-visible on public trackers throughout, which is the entire reason anyone can discuss it; that is not how covert movement is conducted.
Finally, the ownership link is close to the least surprising fact in the investigation file. A conservative foundation that openly and publicly partners with TPUSA has an aircraft that visits Provo — home to a TPUSA event that day. That is what partnership looks like from the air. If donor-linked aircraft never appeared near TPUSA events, that would be the anomaly.
What would settle it
- The passenger manifest for N560TW for September 10, 2025 — the single question Owens is actually asking.
- Provo Airport FBO records showing who was met, and by whom, at 10:06 am.
- Whether anyone boarded or deplaned at Provo at all, or whether the stop was a fuel or crew-duty stop.
- The purpose of the Santa Barbara leg, which the tracking data cannot supply.
- Whether the alleged N40JD Arizona-to-Provo pattern is real and, if so, whether the two are connected in any way.
Interesting In This Area
- Counter-UAS gear reportedly tested at Provo covers the same airfield.
- The Provo badge access list was reportedly modified the day after.
- Donor texts 48 hours before is the donor-pressure thread this joins.
- N1098L's low passes are the other aircraft claim that day.
Interesting In Other Areas
- N560TW Scottsdale jet is the tail number's own page.
- T.W. Lewis Aviation LLC is the registered operator.
- Provo Municipal Airport is where it landed and left.
- Other planes activity timeline dates the wider cluster.

The accusation is not that NSA did something — it is that the capability to identify the foreign phones alleged near Kirk sits forty minutes from the venue, and the answer has never been produced. The underlying dataset has never been published.
