Since I have started flying a lot more for my travels I have also taken more of an interest in airplanes and aviation in general.
I knew John Travolta was an avid private pilot, but had no idea he built a house to park his Boeing 707 and Gulfstream. He also has a 1.4 mile private runway. I originally saw the picture linked below in Maxim Magazine this month and then looked up the house. Fucking beautiful. Being a multi millioniare rules.
Here is the article and picture:

What's more, Travolta is a licensed commercial pilot, he may even have an ATP rating. He recently was the goodwill ambassador for Quantas. This involved him being first officer for commercial flights as well as publicity shots.
Remember Iron Maiden? Neil Dickenson is a professional pilot for a UK airline. When he is not in concert, he might be the first officer on your plane. ;)
