This is an Airbus 319 320.

So, usually when somebody comes in, I'll send them in here for a little bit to sort of get the feeling of being in the plane. I'll say, "How much you want to spend?" So let's say the guys want to spend 20 million bucks. Out of 145 choices, there's only 112 that are under 20 million.

Okay, so now you have all these choices. Let's say you want to compare the Challenger 650, a G550, and a Falcon 7X. So now I could say this is the range from New York non-stop. The blue is the Challenger, the Falcon's the yellow, and the red is the Gulfstream.

This is impressive! Just on the Challenger for $20 million, you can get a Global G550. This is 100% scale. So, I'm 6 foot; this is 100% side. The 550 has this much headroom, and this has this much head.

So it's like a process where you don't know anything, and in a half an hour, I can make you an expert on, you know, why you don't want this and why you want that. Well, it's very impressive. I mean, just the whole layout is incredible.

Well, thank you! Yeah, no, I should be good, but I appreciate it.
