Google Founders Buy Fighter Jet 356

Posted by kdawson from the filing-a-flight-plan-for-redmond dept.
Ponca City, We love you writes "The NY Times reports that H211 LLC, a company controlled by Google's top executives, including billionaire founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, appears to have added to its fleet a Dornier Alpha Jet, a light jet attack and advanced trainer aircraft manufactured by Dornier of Germany and Dassault-Breguet of France. The 1982 Alpha-Jet seats two and was originally used by European air forces, but is now being sold relatively cheaply to civilians. The jet has landing rights at Moffett Field, the NASA-operated airfield that is a stone's throw from the Google campus. It is not clear who exactly flies the fighter jet, although Google chief executive Eric Schmidt is an avid pilot. If the top Googlers indeed own the fighter jet, they would be following in the footsteps of Oracle chief executive Larry Ellison, who has owned several aircraft, including fighter jets."

I think it's amazing how polarized the game news is we see on /.

Warcraft - patch notes!
Warcraft - omg a trailer!
Warcraft - recruit your friends!
Warcraft - more patch notes!
Warcraft - rumors on new content!
Warcraft - WOTLK in alpha!

Though.... I guess that's what should be expected from such a massive and captivated audience. Crapflood on the news pipes.
