World's largest private jet?
Jumbo fit for a prince: The £240million private jet with a Turkish bath, boardroom and concert hall | Mail Online
I have looked everywhere in this diorama and I cannot find the bar! What's the point? |

According to that article, he already owns an "Airbus 231".

The first spiral staircase on a jet oh my!
What interests me the most is that they've seemingly made some major structural changes e.g. the lift, and doors to get a rolls royce in and out. Or perhaps the cargo doors were big enough already? |

I would suspect PPL, night rating, Instrument rating, Multi rating, A380 type rating and no doubt Multi crew cockpit. At a guess
