I've actually flown in a G5 once.


The Navy bought 4 of them for executive transport (CNO, Commandant of the USMC, etc.), but congress said they had to release them to NALO (regular transport) duties when they weren't being used. Caught one of these back home from Brunswick. Much nicer & faster than flying in one of the old C9s...lol

Sweet ride!
