Google Founders Big 767 Private Plane

Posted by techie on July 8, 2006

How rich do you have to be do get an entire 767 for a private plane? I can only imagine what it is like to be inside. It’s like having an entire house that is portable. Incredible!! The real problem is probably finding a place to land and leave the airplane. The founders of Google are so rich. How can they live so lavishly?

Here’s one quote about some of its features:

Mr. Jennings says Messrs. Brin and Page “had some strange requests,” including hammocks hung from the ceiling of the plane. At one point he witnessed a dispute between them over whether Mr. Brin should have a “California king” size bed, he says. Mr. Jennings says Mr. Schmidt stepped in to resolve that by saying, “Sergey, you can have whatever bed you want in your room; Larry, you can have whatever kind of bed you want in your bedroom. Let’s move on.” Mr. Jennings says Mr. Schmidt at another point told him, “It’s a party airplane.”

Incredible!!
