US EditionElon Musk's private jet lands in Bella Bella on B.C.'s central coast over the weekend
Elon Musk's visit involved a helicopter transfer to a retreat likely owned by Tesla board member James Murdoch, highlighting connections within the company's leadership.
- A private jet carrying Elon Musk landed in Bella Bella over the weekend, and he quickly boarded a helicopter, witnesses later confirmed.
- Carter linked Musk's visit to James Murdoch, Tesla board member, noting Murdoch's nearby Nascall Bay retreat is reachable by a 15-minute helicopter or two-hour boat ride and suspected Musk likely visited there.
- Locals who saw the plane reported workers asking `Is that him?` and `I think so` when spotting Musk, while Sean Carter and about eight people returned on Monday, Aug. 18 to photograph him.
- A closer helicopter landing allowed the private jet to shield views on Monday, while Saturday's fishing-lodge changeovers forced a distant helicopter landing, making Musk more visible.
- Rumours about Ocean Falls and a bitcoin mine circulated, while Carter's tail-number check showed the jet was a charter plane from Texas, and the local community reacted with disbelief and curiosity.
