I don't think anybody knew who Seal worked for. I think the C119 that he had in the channel 2 interview in the 80's was shot down during the Sandinista/ Contra deal in central america. CIA owned no doubt. He was a gifted pilot though. Youngest international route captain in TWA at 28-30.

I heard he was also in the Civil Air Patrol as a teenager with Lee Harvey Oswald.
But I always thought that was just an urban legend.

not that it's relevant to the thread, but I have my doubts about that, TWA was always an old stagnant airline, always on the verge of going broke, barely getting through the winter, and getting saved by vacation fares each year, and perpetually laying people off, which is what happened to Seal, and may have accelerated him towards his new profession
ETA: plus, he had already been furloughed by that age
