Vince Neil, the lead singer of Motley Crüe isn't the rock star I would peg to be a successful mogul but he seems to have his fingers in a lot of different businesses. He's launched wine and tequila brands and now he's got his own fleet of private jets. Vince Neil Aviation is launching out of McCarran Airport's Signature Terminal in Las Vegas. Robin Leach reports that Neil has a Hawker 700, a Lear 35 and a Gulfstream which all are tricked out with rock and roll-themed furnishings and painted flames on the fuselage. The plan is to promote the jets for use on luxurious short hops in and out of Sin City. Vince will provide the pilots and flight attendants for the private charter trips. The new flight service plans to open soon and details on price aren't available yet. So, will you be flying the Vince skies?

For anyone who hasn't read Motley Crue's "The Dirt," stop what you're doing and immediately pick up a copy. It's easily the greatest rock 'n roll autobiography I've ever read.

These guys have truly lived the "sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll" lifestyle that people dream about.

More power to Vince. They've sold like 80,000,000 million albums worldwide and every time they go on tour, which they have been for more than 25 years, the concerts are sold out. Vince has the $$$ to do whatever he wants.

I'd love to fly on a tricked out Gulfstream that has something to do with The Crue.

I think "flying high" means something different to the Crew guys than it does to Delta Airlines. I'd make sure I had good insurance first.

Couldn't agree more! The Dirt is the greatest book ever written. I'd love to fly with Vince.

Need a Chief Inspector?

I sure wouldn't trust the "pilots" on HIS airline!

keeping in mind what Vince Neil did to Razzle in his car, transportation doesn't seem like a good idea in his case.

How long will it be before this airline crash and burns?

hope he's not flying it and decides to go get more liquor.

Your comments are cruel. Good idea, concept he has. His hub should be in California to Vegas. Best of luck, Vince.

I loved The Dirt, too. Vince has made his mistakes & suffered tragedies - especially the death of his little daughter from cancer. Yeah, Razzle didn't have to die, but bitterness won't bring him back. There were other reasons for me to dislike VN, but now I'm glad he's not only alive, he seems to be living well.

Motley Crue make me puke...sorry..rather fly w/Bruce Dickinson!! They are a bunch of posers...still!!!

Jon Mar 20th 2010 7:56PM

Awe...dissed groupie!

jerry Mar 20th 2010 10:44PM

Sorry, but I believe they proved they were the real deal many years ago. Probably before you were born. What have you ever done " drummer girl"? Sounds like you're the poser.

I would rather sit in a room and play my drums all alone for the rest of my life than to become a success the way the "Screw Crew" did...their band made the female race (IMO) look real bad with their "shenanigans"....Called 'em posers back in the day before they even had the niche "Glam Rockers" and I honestly don't care for that whole genre of popish style metal (well, there's a few exceptions)....I'm entitled to post my opinion and too bad you don't like it....UP THE IRONS!!!!
