‚Pimping’ Your Private Plane

Executives who travel overseas to meet clients have several options at their disposal. They could fly business class with an established airline, gathering mile-points on the way. But what high-level management craves is a private jet to shuttle important employees to and from their destinations in far-flung corners of the continent.

However few are happy with run-of-the-mill interiors, and want to personalise their craft, so that they are in the lap of luxury 10,000 feet in the air!

Bloomberg News recently caught up with one company dealing with bespoke customisations of private jets.

Watch the video, and answer the questions below:

2. 80% of their business comes from servicing military planes.
3. Military customers “drive for more value for money,” and lots of military budget is being cut, Mr Whitney said.
4. A used Cessna plane like the one in the video would cost $2 million.
