The number one has 32k which is equivellent of 64,000 commercial transantlantic flight trips (per person). For reference, 2024 had a record flights summer of 140k.
A commercial transatlantic flight costs $0.50 per person?
For a moment I thought it might be the presidential plane, which would explain the emissions, but no, for some reason Trump's personal plane is a whole ass Boring 757
I'm surprised there hasn't been dick swinging pressure for some billionaire (the type who cant remember how many billions but net worth probably begins with a 1 due to Benford's law) to get a dreamliner as their private jet.
