Palm Beach, Fla., resident Donald Trump says he upgraded his personal air transport, replacing his Boeing 727 jet with a 757 model twice the size.
Is this N756AF?
The real estate tycoon shelled out $100 million to buy the jet from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen and wouldn't say whether the jumbo business jet would have the gold-plated luxury appointments of the 727, The Palm Beach Post reported Wednesday.
"I bought a great airplane," Trump said. "It's being retrofitted and will be in service in about a month."

I don't imagine Mr Allen will mind giving it up, I believe he still has a couple of GVs, a pair of BD-700s, various helicopters and of course, everything in his museum...
I'm definitely in the wrong line of work. Must make a note in my diary - "Start new software company that will allow me to buy lots of really cool aircraft..."
My wings are like a shield of steel.
