Lol, Canada is a big country ny friend, you'll have to narrow it down. I'm going to guess YYZ based on my deeprooted western Canadian insecurity that Toronto is the centre of the universe :smt040

Very interesting article. Thaks for posting. Can't believe he uses a 747 for a private jet, that's insane.

Isn't Toronto synonymous with Canada? When I see airline travel advertising for flights to Toronto it comes accompanied with pictures of Mounties on horseback, beavers, polar bears, lumber jacks, Lake Louise and occasional Aurora Borealis. So after Toronto,what else is out there?

Have you saw the FBO ramps at Jeddah and Riyad? Full of VIP Boeings and AirBus. The Saudi Royal family is large, they even have their own terminal buildings in Saudi. I'd imagine there are more than a handfull of 747 with gold washrooms and hot and cold running Russian hostess.

Won't be 744 for long...this doesn't look pretentious or over the top at all!

Not crazy with his paint scheme. He also has an A340 and a B767 painted in the same scheme.

Two nice paint jobs on wide bodies are Roman Abramovich's B767 "The Bandit", and Prince Bandar's A340.

My last office overlooked the VIP widebody parking spots at Geneva airport. I used to see lots of nice sleds. I still think Travolta's 707 is one of the classiest.
