The learjet flights were "unrealized flights"

Because of his Gulfstream?
I know it was a Gulfstream, but I referred to it as a “Learjet,” because that’s a more well-known term, and it really doesn’t matter to most of us mensch. It’s like calling a Fuji copy machine a “Xerox” machine.

Fairly standard type of literary trick.

My comment was a play on another comment that refers to wealth from stock as "unrealized gains"
