I'd really like that Airbus 231...

I wonder what the fatigue and damage tolerance engineers have to say about the big hole being cut through the structure for that lift. The rear ramp shown on one of the drawings seems a bit unlikely. I also hope he has his steambath well insulated from the carbon composite wing box that's right next to it. Carbon composites and steam are not the best of friends.

I'm really happy that they sell the A380 to individuals too. Otherwise, I wouldn't know where to place my money.

A bit over the top but I would take one too :lol:

I wonder what operating costs of something like that would be.

 

With some basic back-of-the-envelope math, it looks like the fuel alone wiould be ~$20k/per flight hour.

I would be willing to bet he is paying next to nothing for his fuel considering that it is oil exports that is paying for that airplane in the first place.

 

Saudi Arabia has the lowest fuel prices in the world.

I was reading up on him and supposedly he got or is getting his new yacht soon, $500 million... I'm not sure how a yacht is worth more then an A380...must be a big yacht.

 

 

Well... that tops the pure silver Audi from not to long ago.

 

 

A dude who's birthday is celebrated on dec. 25th once said; "It's easier for a camel to pass through an eye of a needle, then it is for a rich man to pass into heaven."

 

I hope they enjoy it, but even if I had money like that, I can't see myself buying it... I'd rather fly one myself... TBM850 with a super wicked paint job would do the trick.

The owner of the NFL Redskins just dropped 700 on one last summer. Yachts can grow to serious money levels... "Yacht" is a misnomer as they are really "ships".

Yeah that's true. Custom made ships at that

That awkward moment when you realise that your gold plated throttle doesn't work.. on the real Airbus.
