Escalades and Private Jets Make Good Movies!

Recently I watched the movie ‘From Paris With Love’, where John Travolta played a sort of Chuck Norris action hero, as character ‘Charlie Wax’.  What is up with substance words, it forces me to think of Angelina Jolie’s character ‘Salt’.  Back to the film, even with a semi-realistic plot, it was certainly enhanced with the Cadillac Escalade and private jet appearances!

Yes, it was the cliché government ops versus foreign spies and acts of terrorism, but in its defense it had all the fun perks and components we all love (I assume I am not alone).  These included secret surveillance bugs planted in important offices, unexpected spy relationships and covers, and of course, luxury jet charters and Escalade rentals for the badass government undercover dudes.  Those dudes would be Travolta (Wax) and Jonathan Rhys Meyers (Reese).

To recap, Steven Slater was a JetBlue flight attendant and self-professed “Bag Nazi”.  Slater made a dramatic exit, and headlines, quitting his position by grabbing two beers and sliding down an emergency exit slide following an altercation with an unruly passenger.   (see photos at right, nice sleeves officer…)

Feds Give Flying Car Weight Exemption

The Terrafugia Transition is the closest thing to a flying car that has been created to date.  There is no end to the awesomeness of this idea, a vehicle that is equal parts plane and you know, car.  Seriously.

Terrafugia is a startup firm, and they have been developing and tweaking the Transition (fitting name) since 2006.  This startup was founded by a group of MIT engineers who seem to have an affinity for the aerial.  Basically, Transition is a light, single-engine plane capable of folding its wings, with a substantial four-wheeled undercarriage allowing it to be a car.  One word:  Beast.

Luxury Jets: The $59.9 Million Dollar Gulfstream G550 Soars

The name Gulfstream certainly stands out among private jet and aircraft manufacturers, and the Gulfstream G550 is among their best models.  So let’s discuss what comes with the $59.9 million dollars buyers will shell out to own one.

The G550 Gulfstream features an oversized cabin, and is a long-range business jet charter that has been receiving its fair share of attention from its inception.  It accomplished this by flying non-stop from Seoul, South Korea to Orlando Florida just two weeks after it entered service, scaling the 7,301 nautical miles in just 14.5 hours.  This feat snagged the G550 a city pair record, and it established 40 more during its first 5 years of service (it has been in service since 2003).

Discover 5-Star Service, Discover Private Jet Charters

What if you could travel faster, and in complete tranquility?  Is this a fantasy of yours as you stand in line at commercial airports clutching your luggage, sweat breaking out on your forehead as you scan the flight status marquee?  Well, it could be a reality when you choose a private jet charter.
