$42,000 for the 1st one? Owned by Howard Hughes?! I have so many jokes, I don't know where to start.

Frankly, I'd buy it to turn it into beer cans....
Perfect for static display? At what? A playground?

The Jetstar was also one of the few corporate jets to come with a drag chute, much like some Lear 20 series and some Jet Commander jets. Many had them deactiviated or removed, as they were not an FAA requirement. The sdjustable vertical stab was a neat design feature too.

Since somebody brought it up, you can now buy the only McDonnell 220, as listed on barnstormers.

Add Falcon 20's and some early Citation 500. I had forgotten about the 500's until recurrent last month and they showed a picture of one. In the picture it looked like it came out below the hell hole.
If I remember right in the Falcon it was to be repacked every 90 days. I only remember flying one that had it installed and never used it.

I thought that was the most bonkers thing about it when I looked at one up close. That was the first time I'd seen, uhh, trim adjusted that way.

Why doesn't the guy who owns Red Bull add the 220 to his awesome fleet. Dump a few mil in it, modernize the cockpit/interior and have a sweet running around plane. Literally one of a kind.

I think the CAF should pick it up and use it as a executive transport of sorts.

Learjet 35 also. I've used them many times in the 20 and 30 series for proficiency and they work well.

I think @captchia said something like "There's a lot of nerdy pilots that brought a lot of hot women"
