Works out to five million dollars a flight plus fuel, pilots, taxes, upkeep/storage & FAA scheduled rebuilds.<br>So six million dollars a flight. Now that's frequent flyer miles.<br>You can hire a Gulfstream with crew & food & drinks for a lot less & pajamas are allowed. How do I know ? I've prepared the food which includes Tenderloin Beef Medalions, Shrimp platter, Cob Salad, Brownies with shaved white chocolate and more & I've done it for people like Hillary Clinton, Elon Musk, Rudy Guiliani, etc.<br>  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[al schrader]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 25th 2010 7:31AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Peter Jackson's Pricey New Plane]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</guid><description><![CDATA[...such a choice is most likely economic considering how much the man is in demand.  I doubt very much he'll use it 10 times and get bored... remember he's a business and his staff also need to be transported.  I suggest you keep to preparing food "Al Schrader" and living in other people's shadow. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mathew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 25th 2010 11:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Peter Jackson's Pricey New Plane]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</guid><description><![CDATA[Gosh if he can afford all that why doesn't he just buy the Hobbit and direct it himself.?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Deb]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 24th 2010 10:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Peter Jackson's Pricey New Plane]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</guid><description><![CDATA[The three years I waited to see THE greatest trilogy of all time makes me say <br>"You've earned it Peter."<br>Can I have one?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 25th 2010 6:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Peter Jackson's Pricey New Plane]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</guid><description><![CDATA[Whew for a minute there, I thought this news article was going to be one of those in your face articles about conspicuous consumption by the obscenely rich.  Glad to see it was a down-to-earth article about a guy who uses his $50 million dollar "spare" plane for pajama parties for the Hollyweird crowd.  Thanks for brightening up my day.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bruce Williams]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 25th 2010 2:18AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Peter Jackson's Pricey New Plane]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2010/07/23/peter-jacksons-pricey-new-plane/</guid><description><![CDATA[Last I saw him he was twice that size.

Many of the smaller aircraft refuel in HNL duting a flight to OZ.  Nothing like going direct...airlines have been doing it for years. I'm jealous though...I work on a much smaller aircraft for a private owner...wish he would go buy the new Glufstream....it really is a superb piece of machinery...great choice Peter Jackson...way to go mate !!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 25th 2010 12:56PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
