Donald Trump's Boeing 727-23


Originally operated by American Airlines, this 1968-vintage Boeing 727-100-series jet was bought by D.J. Aerospace, one of Donald Trump's companies, for use as the real estate tycoon's personal jet. Reconfigured to hold 23 in luxurious comfort, with soft pale-leather armchairs, gold-plated seatbelt buckles, oil paintings, Waterford-crystal lamps, the 727 flies with a flight attendant to make sure those onboard receive top-class service. The tail number VP-BDJ shows the aircraft is registered in Bermuda, and the "DJ" in the registration stands for "Donald John," Trump's first names. The "Trump" logo on the side is 30 feet long and four feet high and is made of 23-carat gold leaf.

  1. Hi, Though the representational office may be registered in the Commercial Registry with Business setup in Qatar and employ staff in its own name, it really is a ‘shop window’ used to promote a foreign company in Qatar and introduce its products to Qatari companies.Thanks....

  2. The next time Donald Trump prattles on about "respecting the flag" and "making America great again", ask him why he chose to register his personal jet for 14 years in Bermuda to avoid taxes.
