Has anyone seen pics of the Sultan of Brunei's plane? Puts Putins rust bucket to shame. A literal flying palace.

It does not surprise me that the Sultan of Brunei's plane is so OTT but then when you have that much money you can have anything and that by the looks of things that includes a gold plane...
