Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, recently purchased an impressive $80 million aircraft known for its exceptional speed, approaching the sound barrier. Bezos and his partner, Lauren Sánchez, have already enjoyed a flight on this remarkable plane, spotted at Van Nuys airport in Los Angeles.

According to TMZ, Jeff and Lauren flew to Los Angeles to meet Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble for a double date. They arrived in the city on a brand new Gulfstream G700, known for its impressive speed capabilities. The G700 reached over a thousand kilometers per hour, 92.5 percent closer to the speed of sound.

Jeff Bezos acquired the aircraft in July, which is notable for its speed and luxurious amenities. The interior features five distinct living areas, encompassing a primary suite with a bed, bathroom, shower, dining room, cabin, lounge, and crew rest area. Jeff's private jet has leather seats, a high-end kitchen, custom finishes, and wood applications throughout the cabin.

Although it is one of the most potent and fastest aircraft in the world, TMZ details that it is tranquil inside, just like a whisper. It should be noted that Bezos has two other private planes in his 'garage'', although they are more elegant and sophisticated than the one he recently acquired.
