Swanky. Some of these luxury bizjets have pretty nice interiors. For instance, Bombardier's Global 7000 has a pretty nice bedroom.

Or the Hollywood Airship interior of the Embraer 1000E.

With a Boeing 787 business jet you can get heated marble floors in the shower area...

One rich flyer has a pretty nice dining room in his 747-8I. It's worth over 400 million before the customization starts.

Bomb Tipping

A depiction of the first physical tipping of a V-1 flying bomb by Ken Collier, 91 Squadron RAF, in his Spitfire on June 23, 1944. While another pilot had used his wing to disrupt the airflow over the V-1's wing and send it out of control and away from London, Ken was the first to actually make contact. Not knowing if it would explode, he knocked it nearly 90 degrees from the horizontal and sent it spiraling to the ground.

Workers at the Vega Aircraft Company, a division of Lockheed, put the finishing touches on a PV-1 Ventura at the company's plant in Burbank, CA, during World War II.

The boring life of today's pilots. Instead of the packed array of analogue gauges filling every bit of area around the flight crew, modern business jets are akin to sitting in an office chair surrounded by computer screens. I'm sure it's all quite useful, but I liked the old style better. Here are some modern cockpits....boring!

I'd rather be sitting in a Challenger than in here.
