Phil Perry Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I've seen a few of Greg's videos lately ( Nothing much else to do in the Lockdown ) I thought initially that he was a bit full of himself,. . .but after a few vids I warmed to his professionalism. . . He flies an Obsolete private Jet, ie, made by a division of Beechcraft which cl;osed down and was taken over by another conglomerate. . . It is an 8 seater, which he flies regularly as single pilot. . .helped no doubt by his experience in F16s in the Gulf wars. I like all his avionics 'Toys' and wish I'd had that advantage when doing my instrument rating. . . this stuff makes it a bit on the easy side Bear in mind that in the USA, Jet A1 fuel can vary in price between $2.30 to $8.20 per gallon. . . This vid is a quick flight between Florida and Indianapolis. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onetrack Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 He must have gone from F16 driver straight to Wall St banker, to be able to buy and run all his expensive toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Perry Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 He must have gone from F16 driver straight to Wall St banker, to be able to buy and run all his expensive toys. I guess that's connected with him being the CEO of a multi-state 'MEDICAL EQUIPMENT' company. . . . $$$$$$. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Perry Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 He sells "Medical equipment"?? Say no more. The stuff makes aircraft spares look like the bargain bin. Manufactures the stuff too . . . . He'd need to. . .on one of his vids, he went to pay his bill at Boston Logan airport, and the fuel alone. 300 US Gallons of Jet A1 @ $8.31 per Gall ! ! ! $645 handling / landing fee, Local taxes etc, etc. . . A hobby for millionaires methinks. . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
