Thanks for that fascinating fact!

Here is the last bit of them leaving to take it on the road.

Man, I love this kind of stuff. Is this upcycling? I'd make it into a tiny home

i love these wacky restoration and conversion projects! definitely would consider it upcycling. there hasn't been an airworthy jetstar around for several years now and it's not like anyone is going to restore a sixty something year old biz jet, this is probably the most useful thing it could be doing.

theres another guy who did this with a DC3, has a fuckin stove and everything

Yeah, I really don't know what to make of it all. The Elvis guy says Priscilla didn't have the capacity to sign off authentication but does he mean regarding her cognitive health or she simply couldn't verify with certainty? And the article brings up that she actively promoted the auction house, the plane, sued her granddaughter, etc etc etc but I assume there's documentation of this theft of her funds?

I remember when the estate settlement happened, there was a clause that said Riley had to do everything in her power to stop Elvis Inc from suing Priscilla and it seemed like a weird thing at the time but now...I don't know, man.

That Kruse lady is a fucking con, though.
