Another must have for me. But considering it comes from KSA how come it has a VP registration. Saudi a/c usually have registrations starting with HZ.

Why on earth they're not releasing the Qatar A346 is beyond me.

The big VIP airplanes (like this one and Roman Abramovich 767) have VP reg because its cheaper!

Just for clarification, VP- is Bermuda's registration number prefix. This promises to be a great model, and I wouldn't mind seeing her smaller sister, either.

Who owns this beautiful plane and what exactly is it used for?

But seriously, why would someone want to own a private plane of that size? It must be pretty hard to find a private hangar in which to park it!

National Air Service is a Saudi based VVIP transport company. Its used by wealthy oil-rich royals. The rest I will leave to your imagination.

When you have billions in your bank account, what's $100 to $300 mil going to matter? I imagine these guys can park these babies on the runway when they're away from home and not bother with a hotel room. The inside of these planes is more luxurious than most hotels anyway. There's a Saudi prince who's buying an A380 to customize, it'll be the largest private plane ever.

Holy god. I saw this in Airliners and I wanted it. I hope we get more private jets soon.

I thought this National Air Service thing is like the National Service/Tour of Duty thing.

Thanks for that! I think I'll be getting it since it'll look nice beside my Royal Brunei A340... A couple of huge private birds, showing off what an oil fortune can do, sitting side by side!!
