Title: Airbus A380 "Private Jet" Post by: Vatsal on March 11, 2008, 12:03:24 PM Airbus A380 "Private Jet"
The famous quote says that the difference between men and boys is the price of their toys. When you place a Middle Eastern dignitary in the equation, you'll have this difference at it's tipping point. What am I talking about? Well, I am talking about a toy that will cost 150 million dollars, yeap, US$ 150,000,000.00. That's the price of a new Airbus A380 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbus_A380) "private jet" soon to be delivered to this unknown dignitary. Actually, a Flying Palace fits more the new toy description. Since last February (http://aviation.com/070220_a380_vip-order.html) news and photos of the plane interior are slowly leaking into the internet. From Bornrich.org (http://www.bornrich.org/) : Besides the fully-equipped board room, cozy relaxing zone, the pimped-out jet features a grand entrance, VIP lounge with five couches and a tucked away wet bar that is fully equipped with a refrigerator, a wine chiller and a microwave and a dining room with a 70-inch flat screen and 42-inch pop-up monitors. There is even a secluded area off the private dining room on the upper deck that is designed to enjoy desert retreats. The jet's 6,640 square-foot cabin is designed by designer Edese Doret.
