Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, candidate for the presidency of Brazil for the right-wing Liberal Party (PL) in the elections scheduled in ten days, flew in January 2025 from Florida to Brasilia aboard a jet partly attributable to the founder of Banco Master, Daniel Vorcaro, at the center of the investigation into an alleged maxi-fraud and held in precautionary custody for months.

This was revealed by the Piauí magazine, according to which the Prime You company, of which Vorcaro was a member until September 2025, had acquired a one-third share of the plane at the end of 2024.

The Legacy 650, on which Flávio Bolsonaro, his wife, two daughters and the lawyer and entrepreneur Willer Tomaz were traveling, departed from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood airport on January 19, 2025 and landed in Brasilia. Tomaz, who owned another share of the aircraft through his own company, told Piauí that he only discovered in April 2026 that Vorcaro had acquired a stake in the plane and that he was now in dispute with Prime You. The third share belonged to Laércio Cosentino, founder of Totvs.

According to the magazine, the trip took place while Jair Bolsonaro's eldest son and Vorcaro were negotiating a 24 million dollar investment for Dark Horse, the biopic about his father, former president of Brazil from 2019 to 2022 and sentenced to over 27 years in prison for an attempted coup, currently under house arrest. The first contribution, of 12 million dollars, was paid in February 2025. The Federal Police is investigating the path of the funds intended for production, while the defense of Vorcaro and Flávio Bolsonaro have so far not responded to Piauí's questions.
