Nice choice.

I wouldn't mind one of those, either.

I would like an Embraer Lineage 1000E

Pretty weak range for a business jet. Have fun refueling.

Phenom 300E rated for single pilot, 45k ceiling, and 521 mph cruise speed for GA flying one person or a few that's the best way to go. Looking at the specs says Roughly 3138' take off runway and 2621' runway landing . I'm sure its under best conditions.

Lockhead Constellation. A prop driven airliner from the 40's & 50's, with three fins on it's tail. I made a few models of these when I was a kid and have always liked the style.

Although what I'd most like for myself would be the previously mentioned DC-3 w/turboprop conversion, a Constellation would be a cool second choice. I don't know if one actually appears in the movie, but something about the Constellation always reminds me of "The Girl Can't Help It".

They were very elegant, yes!

Have you seen some of the shenanigans those "professionals" get arrested for?

Put me down for a Sovereign Plus and if there is a holdup in production then I'll take a CJ4 while the Sovereign is being built.

Well, I couldn't find a Constellation in "The Girl Can't Help It", so I'll just post this link instead.
