We guess $50 million is just pocket change when you’re one of the richest and most successful directors in the world!
Plane enthusiast and collector Sir Peter Jackson has just shelled out a whopping $50 million for a brand new Gulfstream G550 plane, which will give him the ability to fly non-stop from Australia to Los Angeles.
This new model will replace his older Gulfstream IV, which was apparently a hassle for Sir Peter since its shorter range required him to stop for fuel during his trip.
The director also collects World War I planes and even has a company called The Vintage Aviator, which builds and restores military aircraft.
His new toy will be parked in the Melbourne airport and accommodates 12 to 16 passengers.
His guests shouldn’t bother arriving in style, mate, as the director requires that they wear pajamas on all overnight flights!
How cheeky!
