Mighty Planes | Smithsonian Channel Here is the preview. I'd check the listings/DVR to see if you can still watch the whole thing. They showed the full show 2-3 times yesterday. Such an amazing aircraft!
Simple: not enough!I'd love to know that pilot's salary
I think he got it from Google, who bought it from Paul Allen. I could be wrong on that though. Seen this bird several times too, pretty incredible AC. Was lucky enough to see it at LAX. LaGaurdia, and Eagle/Vail. Only cooler big boy planes I've seen were all Saudi, UAE, Oman, Bahrain VIP 747's. Hard to beat those.....especially seeing as how a 747 can keep up with a Citation X, true storyMr. Trump's 757 - YouTube
seen it in person, it is one of a kind, he got it a few years ago from vice president of microsoft i believe.
Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal has an A380 that is said to have a garage for his RR, a 10 seat concert hall, steam room, and a bunch of other generally useless things for an airplane to have lol. Pretty incredible, nonetheless.I think he got it from Google, who bought it from Paul Allen. I could be wrong on that though. Seen this bird several times too, pretty incredible AC.

He sold it last year while it was in construction. Said he was offered a price he couldn't refuse. When I was in Riyadh, I used to fly through the Royal/VIP terminal and I was lucky enough to see his bird there a few times. His office in Riyadh (Kingdom Tower) is also amazingly awesome....Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal has an A380 that is said to have a garage for his RR, a 10 seat concert hall, steam room, and a bunch of other generally useless things for an airplane to have lol.

Wow. Just read a Forbes article on it and it sounded like more of a curse than anything.He sold it last year while it was in construction. Said he was offered a price he couldn't refuse.
