I believe I read an article about a Saudi prince purchasing one of these for his personal jet....must be rough.

Yeah, sure, but at least he talking about a War plane. . .oh, wait.

It is a war plane.....the AF AMC will be buying it to fly guys to and from the war. :D



Touché....Yea, I searched. I just thought I'd bring it up again and get thoughts with all the FNG's.

Yeah, I'm looking fwd to getting it (even if those morons put a yoke in it!). I'm just wondering if it will ever show up.


Well, the first flight has already been pushed back twice and I don't know that they have set another projected first flight date. It was a huge deal when they rolled it out for the first time up here in Everett. People were sneaking around in the middle of the night taking pictures from the perimeter fence. Cops were posted all around trying to prevent it, but it didn't do much good.

Triple decker??? I only see two rows of windows...

Most airlines are not going to purchase the bar, lounge, salon, it's a offered feature, but you bet that most airlines want the 500+ seats mostly filled with coach.

I think it was Singapore Airlines that has a couple beds, but has a strict "no plane babies" policy.

Screw the salon, what they need is a Saloon. How much more fun would long flights be with fighting, horses, hookers, booze and gambling?
