Sultan of Brunei's Private Airplane
An Air Force Lt. General wrote... I toured this aircraft as it was being "remodeled" in Waco. Yes, the sinks are solid gold and one of them is Lalique crystal. The Sultan bought the aircraft brand new for roughly $100M. He had it flown to Waco from the Boeing factory and had the interior completely removed. Then he had the folks at E-Systems install $120M worth of improvements inside and outside. I've gained entrance to nuclear weapons storage areas much easier than gaining entrance to see this airplane. While there it struck me - Maybe the rich really are different than the rest of us!! Now you go and check out the Sultan of Brunei's Private Airplane. # posted by masquerader @ 18:28 ::
