>> steven stockbroken broke the story last year. >> reporter: just about everyone has heard about the deal. a deal that allows them to keep up to seven private airplanes and two helicopters there under a company they call h 211. tonight for the first time we take you inside that relationship and we piece together exactly how much you are subsidizing google's founders to travel all over the world. it's a common site at nasa ames one of the airplanes belonging to google's founders, sitting in front of the hangar that gave h 211 its name. the principles are larry page and eric schmidt, the same three at google whose headquarters is less than three miles away. according to federal records,

the 757 for years used taxpayer supported jet fuel to fly around the world to places like liberia, scotland and hawaii. take september 22nd, 2009 the plane gassed up the day before leaving to fly to mexico. h 211 paid $2.37 a gallon for 2,218 gallons. it cost between $5 and $8.50 a gallon at local airports. and then paying $14,000 for 4200 gallons of fuel or $3.27 a gallon. >> this may have been the greatest sweetheart deal in the history of nasa. >> reporter: the santa monica group that first raised questions about this deal years ago. >> this is giving the keys to the nasa gas station to

executives who clearly are not using it for scientific purposes when their contract spells out that's what they have to do. >> reporter: the original agreement signed in 2007 stipulates that they could house the airplanes paying $109,000 a month in rent in exchange, h 211 would allow nasa to use the plane for scientific mission. it does not set a number of scientific flights. but our investigation last year showed out of 1,000 flights only 155 of them were for science. >> it boggles the mind. >> reporter: and 1200 different times, h 211 bought fuel at nasa ames totally $7.9 million, paying well below market rates. >> they should give the money back with interest. and if there was an intentional attempt to mislead the government, i think it rises to the level of a false claim

against the government. >> i hope obviously to get to the truth. >> reporter: paul runs a non-profit based in palo alto. he asked and has been denied to base his operations at moffitt field. in the last year he obtained and shared with us the federal fuel records. we independently verified their accuracy with federal officials. >> there was "a" preferential treatment. >> this plane, a 767 flew to paris, cancun, switzerland and tahiti. it has been fuelled 100 times for 442,000 gallons of fuel. or these gulf streams gassed up 404 times with 919,000 gallons of fuel. airplanes that records show flew to hawaii, scotland, st. martin and nice, france.

>> this investigation is something that smells to begin with. and we want to get to the bottom of it. >> reporter: this senator saw our investigation a year ago. >> what bothers me a most is what is the justification for it. it implies a favoritism going on. that would be wrong and implies a waste of taxpayer money. >> reporter: nasa ames division chief e-mailed a statement that reads in part, nasa is always looking for innovative public-private partnerships and there is no agency on mof it from which to obtain field. as for google we were turned to ken ambrose who sent a statement that reads in part, h 211 aircraft buy only the fuel

available at moffet and nasa and the taxpayers are $2 million to the good. a helicopter owned by ambrose was we fuelled with 7,078 gallons of d.o.d. field. >> we do not have discretion as long as the planes are hangars within what is the federal enclave. >> reporter: that is larry stone the assessor for santa clara county who sends out the local tax bill for all property taxes. what he's saying is that h 211 pay no county taxes on any of the papers because the planes sit at a federal facility. >> is that fair? >> it's the law. i don't know if it's fair or not. i think if someone has their plane within the federal enclave at moffet field and not paying

property tax where the same plane at the san jose airport would be paying a property tax that's not fair. >> is h 211 getting an unfair advantage? >> reporter: last summer i asked her about the relationship between nasa and h 211. >> people in the community that care the most about what happens at the airfield have signed off on this. why? because they are a partner with nasa ames in terms of research. >> reporter: her staff said she was too busy to answer our questions on camera this time. >> i think this is something that is celebrated in my congressional district. this is not a favor in any way, shape, or form. >> while she wouldn't answer our questions, her people did send us an e-mail to update her stance saying she supports the inspector general's add it into

this deal and if it is found the federal government was shortchanged, h 211 should make good on the difference. you can read the statements from this story on www.nbcbayarea.com. and the defense department did announce that as of august 31st they were doing away with this deal and no longer would sell fuel to h 211. >> thank you, steven. if you have a tip for steven stock, we urge you to give us a call at 888-996-tips or send us an e-mail. they are cute and cuddly but they are working. workers and volunteers for guide dogs for the blind took part in a training tonight. four legged trainees are getting used to going to security and getting pat downs and the sound and smell of all the things at the airports. >> it gets them used to the plane and used to the normal
