Twelve seats vs. 42. Same non-stop capability.

"It is one of the planes used regularly by Hastert, Pelosi's office and the Pentagon said."
So I guess the plane CAN make it coast to coast without refueling after all, despite Pelosi's claims to the contrary, when she used it as a reason to try to get a bigger plane.

Of course she can fly nonstop, Pelosi is so full of gas she could make it round trip.

The Gulfstream V is a very nice aircraft.

I think the whole thing has been ridiculous from the beginning. There should never have been passed a law stating that the Speaker should have military transport for security reasons. The President deserves it. The Vice President deserves it. Nobody else in the line of succession needs it. They don't get Secret Security protection, why the need for a miltiary plane? And if the second in line of succession needs a plane for security reasons then why not the third in line? And the fouth? And the 10th? Congress should repeal this stupid idea.

Maybe they mid-air refueled. /sarc

People on the left think that military folks are thugs, rapists and murderers. Yet they seem happy to travel on military planes with military crews. It's odd.

I hope you all realize these stories of pelosi wanting a military jet for domestic flights is bogus. She really wants the longest leggy ranged aircraft so she can confer with our enemies under the guise of diplomatic missions.

Great Circle distance from Washington to San Francisco is a little over 2100 nautical miles.
Less than half the range of a G-V.
And she had the gall to complain about "having to refuel"?

She flew home for the funeral of another Dem politico! So, would that be $600,000 round-trip?
Queen Nancy indeed.

Okay, sure, a Gulfstream V is not a B-757, but it is one of the sweetest aircraft flying. I think Rush has one, which is probably why it isn't good enough for Her Highness. Only the ultra rich would think a G5 is beneath them.

Should, God forbid, Hillary become President she will probably demand a golden litter carried by slaves just like the Queen of Sheba.
