While most people would be scared of their private jet landing safely during foggy weather, that doesn’t seem to be the case for Drake.
The Grammy award-winning rapper shared the ‘heart-stopping’ moment his pilots landed his private jet with low visibility.
The video shows the extent of the thick fog blanketing all the windows.

The pilots were essentially flying blind in such weather, only relying on their equipment for navigation.
A robotic voice also starts to count down the altitude as the plane descends from 500 feet to 50 feet.
Then out of nowhere a runway suddenly cuts through the fog like a knife.
Drake was filming the landing sitting behind the pilots in the cockpit.
The landing was smooth, despite the weather, with the rapper sounding thoroughly impressed by his pilots’ skills.
The rapper was gifted his private jet, a Boeing 767 by Canadian cargo carrier, Cargojet, back in 2019.
The gratis aircraft was remodeled extensively, with late fashion designer, Virgil Abloh, supervising the restoration process.
The private jet is called “Air Drake” by the rapper and is worth $185 million.
Air Drake also has a hidden message under the belly of the aircraft.
The rapper captioned the video, “There’s a couple landings I love on Air Drake but tbh the low visibility is the most exciting it makes your heart drop a bit…lucky I got the best putting this shit wheels down.”
Other than the aircraft, Drake also owns multiple supercars in his collection including, a rare Bugatti and a custom Rolls-Royce.
The rapper also owns a ridiculously extravagant $250 million mansion.
The video is just a sneak peek into the extravagant life of the Grammy-winning rapper and how he rolls.
It’s sufficient to say that Drizzy Drake is quite adventurous and a thrill seeker too.
