David Rodgers served as a pilot for Jeffrey Epstein's private jets, including the Boeing 727 (N908JE), commonly known as the "Lolita Express," from 1991 to 2006. Hired in 1991 by Epstein's company JEGE Inc., he earned approximately $55,000 annually plus bonuses. According to unsealed flight manifests from federal court cases, he logged numerous flights from U.S. airports such as Palm Beach and Teterboro to international destinations including Paris, London, and Epstein's private island Little St. James in the U.S. Virgin Islands, often carrying prominent passengers like Bill Clinton (flown twice per Rodgers' statements), Prince Andrew, and others. In a January 2016 deposition under oath in Virginia L. Giuffre's defamation lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:15-cv-07433), he detailed flight schedules and passenger manifests, stating he never witnessed sexual activity or underage girls on board and was instructed not to enter the passenger cabin without permission. No criminal charges have been filed against Rodgers related to Epstein's activities, and he has maintained he was unaware of any misconduct.
