This looks amazingly like set 455.  Has LEGO owned this plane for the • last
29 years?

<http://guide.lugnet.com/set/455_1>>> • <http://img.lugnet.com/set/200/early/lego455.jpg>>

Note that owning and operating a Citation is a good chunck of change, • many of
these craft have operating costs in the 2-5K/hour range. And LEGO has 3!

Not to mention the cost of maintaining just one of these planes.

Some companies even share the costs of ownership or leasing with other • companies
in exchange for the use of the aircraft.

Many companies also lease out their planes when there is a period where
no activity is forseen.  Which brings this back to the subject again.

Is there a way to charter one of these jets :-)


Rent it for just little round-about sight seeing hope... I wonder how many
AFOLs would pay for a flight around the city in the LEGO jet :-)
