Crue's Neil Reaches For The Sky

Vince Neil buys a fleet of planes

Motley Crue’s Vince Neil has gone one better than Led Zeppelin with their paltry single Boeing 720B airplane by starting up his own private jet company.

Vince Neil Aviation will apparently specialise in luxurious short trips in and out of Las Vegas aboard a rock n roll themed jet.

So far the frontman has apparently put together a fleet that is made up of a Hawker 700, a Lear 35 and a Gulfstream which are all refurbished with rock and roll-themed furnishings and painted flames on the fuselage.

Vince told Robin Leach of the Las Vegas Sun: "They are all now finished, all tricked out. We will base Vince Neil Aviation at McCarran Airport’s Signature Terminal. The Hawker will hold eight passengers and fly nonstop Las Vegas to New York. The Lear holds seven but will make one fuel stop en route to New York. All three are perfect for short, fast hops from Las Vegas to Phoenix, Aspen, California cities, Mexico and Canada. In fact, I took the Gulfstream down to South America for our last tour, and we stopped in Aruba for a few days’ vacation on the way home to Vegas.”

No details on prices, but all the information will be landing at the official website -  www.vinceneilaviation.com

Meanwhile, Vince Neil releases his brand new album Tattoos & Tequila on 22 June in the US (no UK release date as yet).
