This is a Bombardier Global 7500, an incredibly expensive private jet that’s like the Rolls-Royce of aviation.

It’s massive, and it also has an impressive range.

There are only a couple of ‘minor’ issues, though.

No, it’s not just the price.

The Bombardier Global 7500 showcased by Farooq Syed on his YouTube channel is the stuff of dreams.

At 111 feet (34 meters), the Global 7500 is one of the largest business jets this side of the repurposed Boeing 747 that Saudi Arabia converted into a private jet to transport some of the country’s best soccer players (including Neymar) across the country.

It’s fully customizable, which is par for the course, although that brings us to the minor issue we mentioned before.

If you’ve got $78 million – which is what this costs – burning a hole in your pocket, and you want a Global 7500 jet, you have two options.

You can either A, buy one used, or B, order one and have it modified to fit your requirements.

The problem is that the ultra-rich don’t like buying things customized by others, but they also don’t like to wait, and there’s some waiting involved if you order one from scratch, especially when we remember this is a plane that attracts governments, not just individuals.

The Swiss government owns one.

This record-breaking jet – it set 50 speed records in a year – might be worth it, and it’s easy to see why they call it the Rolls-Royce of aviation.

The Bombardier Global 7500 comprises four zones, and each one is customizable.

You can even add a bedroom, as in a proper bedroom not just a couch that doubles as a bed, and a proper bathroom with a shower.

It has an incredible range, too.

The 7500 can travel at Mach 0.85 (903km/h) and has a range of 7,700 nautical miles, equivalent to 14,300 kilometers.

In real-world terms, this means the plane (in theory) has the range to travel from Los Angeles to London and back.

So it does cost $78 million, but you do get a lot of bang for your buck.
