Nah. A while back, I used the analogy of "The US is corkscrewing into the ocean like John John Kennedy's Saratoga*" to a pilot friend. It needs some tightening, but the pilot got it...
Many moons ago, I had enough air miles to upgrade to 1st Class on United. It started by them taking my coat and hanging it ("We'll put your ticket tab in the pocket, so we know to give it back to you when we land"), and then asking "would you care for a preflight cocktail?" "Well, I wasn't planning on having one, but it would seem rude to turn you down." And that's how I wound up sitting at PHL drinking scotch at 07:30. Very plush.
My uncle used to own land in Coeur de Laine (sp?) and raved about it. 20 years later, I hear that CdL was infested with white supremacists. Uncle wasn't a racist (as far as he showed me) so I figured they crept in from somewhere...
Fuel, insurance, pilots, etc... for a standard Business Jet of that size is ~$5K/hr. I figure the balance is for all of the air and ground support needed for the flight.
"And when they finally picked up, they only spoke some foreign language. And I told them 'Speak English, Man! There's a natural disaster, going on!' Then all they did was ask for some woman named 'Kay'."
Oh, but of course. But the censored version has the same batshit nonsensical feel as "See what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps," so it is inherently superior. At least for comedy purposes.

*JFK Jr's plane was a Piper Saratoga
Now, rat-faced blonde is a little harsh. I shall have you know, she's known as "Dead Hooker #4" to the Law & Order crew...
Well, it's a Gulfstream V, after all; not like it's a C-130

CEO of my old company in PA let his son take the company jet to Penn State games. Then bonuses were reduced.

That's not including her "fee" as well...
I thought his boat was named "Woman to Blame"
Like Sam Rothstein said about KK Ichikawa: "Another billionaire cheapskate who loves his free rooms, free private jets, and two million of our money."

Trump wanted to share communications with the Russians.
That's Angel-Haired Louise Linton to you.
Grey Poupon, so elitist! It costs like $4!
