Sultan of Brunei's Private Airplane
Comment: An Air Force Lt. General wrote: 'I toured this aircraft as it was being 'remodeled' in Waco. Yes, the sinks are solid gold and one of them of Lalique crystal. The Sulton bought the aircraft brand new for roughly $100M. He had it flown to Waco from the Boeing factory and had the interior completely removed. Then, he had the folks at E-Systems install $120M work of improvements inside and outside. I have gained entrance to nuclear weapons storage areas much easier than gaining entrance to see this airplane. While there it struck me . . Maybe the rich really are different than the rest of us.'
