Amazon founder Jeff Bezos reportedly got himself a new ride: a Gulfstream G700.
He is thought to have taken possession of the top-of-the-line private jet in July, Business Insider reported, citing JetSpy data.
The aircraft reportedly adds to three aircraft that he already has, including a pair of Gulfstream G650 jets also made by General Dynamics subsidiary Gulfstream Aerospace. His fleet features a Pilatus PC-24 too, according to the outlet.
