a toy for the ridiculously filthy rich

Who buys these planes? I want to seriously know. Are these used by corporate executives that are travelling as a group to other countries or what?

These are amazing though... $275 million is a good bit of change for *any* company though.

Matchbox cars has an airplane division, you should check it out. Aisle 54 of your local wal*mart, in the toys section.
 
Whoa.

Pretty sweet, though.

I bet folks in the Middle East will be their top customers. 🙂
 
This is a toy for someone who has everything. Really. Because unless you have everything there is probably something else the money would be better spent on. Like your own island.

Meh, private Islands are cheap.
 
There is already an order in for a private Airbus A380. The buyer is an undisclosed billionaire who is paying $475 million for it ($325 for the plane, $150 in custom upgrades).

Yep, just look at the giant yachts those guys own. More like small cruise liners than yachts.
