Dear bluesafrica,

I won't argue what 747FOCAL said about the FBI making them jack up the price to keep people away. That being said I can think of three off the top of my head that have that kind of cash and are licensed pilots, Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Steve Foucet. Cruise currently owns a P-51 Mustang, Travolta B-707, Foucet is currently funding the around the world non-stop single engine/single pilot (death trap) venture.

At KTUL there used to be (might still be) what I called the Oklahoma air force. Someone had either a F-5 or T-38 in their hangar for private use.

Yes there really are people out there that could drop $29m plus for a one of a kind aircraft.
