Morgan Freeman purchases the SJ30 private jet for $7million


The latest celebrity who is all set to fly high (literally) is none other than Morgan Freeman. The actor, who has a private pilot’s license, has purchased a new private jet from the Emirates Investment and Development Company (Emivest), a private investment company in the UAE. The new purchase, SJ30, is produced by Sino Swearingen Aircraft Corporation (SSAC), a US-based manufacturer and a subsidiary of Emivest. The SJ30, a business jet, is known as “the world’s fastest, longest-range and highest-flying light jet.” The aircraft can maintain sea-level cabin pressure at 41,000 feet and has a top cruising altitude of 49,000 feet. Although there is no official information about this jet’s price, it is said that Freeman, who was to fly the new jet from Los Angeles to the UAE, purchased it for $7million!
