A 2.5 million private jet is, uh, probably not new.

The smallest Very Light Jets, like the Cessna Mustang or HondaJet, start around $5 million new.

So you're probably looking at a decades old plane, almost certainly not enough room to fully stand up, and possibly no lavatory.

It could be a Cirrus Vision Jet.

Edit: holy shit they've gone up in price to $3.2M. Damn inflation hitting private jets too. Nobody's immune

So if this pilot users his new Jet to smuggle more drugs, is Mr Beast an accomplice?
