There's nothing wrong with traveling in a G-V or G-VI, when it becomes commercially available.  Besides in this market, I doubt he's jet-setting around the country, or world, cutting deals.  Bankers like debt-coverage and equity, not flash.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jasonfgd]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2009 8:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Donald Trump's Plane For Sale]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</guid><description><![CDATA[Fuel cost is between $4000 and $5000 and hour, then there is crew cost maintainance, landing fees.  Actually buying a Gulfstream 5 is much more economical and better suited with a lot of reconfiguration and has a little farther range.  Most of the large planes like he currently has were used back in the day by bands like Beach Boys Beatles Bob Seger.  Now becasue many of the concerts are within a couple hundred miles they used very seductive motorhomes some with paint jobs that cost as much as $100K at least from the guy in Kisseme FL  There is a big company in Upper Michigan and one in Texas that redoes airplane for the super wealthy from all over the world]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob Ashworth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2009 2:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Donald Trump's Plane For Sale]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</guid><description><![CDATA[What do you mean "commercially" available?  Anybody can buy any non-governmental aircraft if they have the $$$.  Also, 1 interesting note....see the tail #, or registration number, not registered in the USA, to avoid taxes.  The people who can afford to pay taxes always find ways to avoid them!  What a scam.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2009 2:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Donald Trump's Plane For Sale]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</guid><description><![CDATA[Customer deliveries of the Gulfstream 650 are expected to commence in 2012.

Perhaps a nice Gulfstream IV or V,  or if his finances are really much improved a Bombardier Global Express (GE).  For those that feel this is excess, clearly you have not seen the A380 that the Saudi King is having built!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jamarx08]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2009 2:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Donald Trump's Plane For Sale]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</guid><description><![CDATA[THE DONALD, HAS USED OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY, TO STROKE HIS INCREDIABLE EGO.

Smoke and mirrors.  If he says it's "huge" it must be.  The pending commercial real estate plunge may find him with his rather large ego in his hand.  Never too impressed with his plane, looked old sitting on the runway.  His daughter is pretty sharp, but the rest of that crew is an empty cab.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2009 4:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Donald Trump's Plane For Sale]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</guid><description><![CDATA[Customer deliveries of the Gulfstream 650 are expected to commence in 2012.

The Pentagon provides the House speaker with an Air Force plane large enough to accommodate her staff, family, supporters, and members of the California delegation when she travels around the country. But, Pelosi wanted routine access to a larger plane. It includes 42 business class seats, a fully-enclosed state room, an entertainment center, a private bed, state-of-the-art communications system, and a crew of 16. Pelosi wanted "carte blanche for an aircraft any time," including weekend trips home to San Francisco . Pretty nice but very expensive perk! Her Air Force C-32 costs approximately $15,000 an hour or approximately $300,000 per trip home.. Cost to American Taxpayers 5 +million a year.. She only work 3 days a week.....But remember she wants us to down size to peepoppers to reduce carbon foot prints.....She may get this one for her billion dollar husband that owns StarKist Tuna.....But if this one has to stop to refuel that will kill the deal.. That's why she needed this new plane  she was inconvenienced  by fuel stops . Funny it was good enough for the Republican Speakers.. Go figure<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tracy Hill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2009 6:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Donald Trump's Plane For Sale]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/11/10/donald-trumps-plane-for-sale/</guid><description><![CDATA[I hear Pelosi eyeing this for her Billion dollar husband owner of StarKist Tuna.
