    I'd love to have one of these:

    http://velocityaircraft.com/airplane-models-txl.html

    Two Hundred Fifty Knots in that thing! And it looks vastly different than most other aircraft. The only downside is you gotta build it yourself, but if I'm rich, I can just buy one that someone already finished.

    Check out the Turbo their currently developing. It reminds me a bit of the Beech Starship or Piaggio Avanti.

    If I were rich, I'd hire a bunch of lawyers and bury the TSA in motions and injunctions past their eyeballs.

    Then I'd go see if Don Scherer wants to sell me his Beech Starship.

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    I took my father out to FRG yesterday and got to show him an Albatros up close. I'm shocked that he thought it was cool and that if I ever getmy hands on one, that he wants a ride! haha

    I like all of your ideas, but my dream purchase would be a 757 -- as well as fuel and a place to keep it.

    However, more realistically, I would settle (is that the right word? hehe) for a DeHavilland Dash 8-102. They're small, don't need much space to take off (I had a 4-second t/o roll when doing LGA-ROC last year), and don't use as much fuel as a jet. Plus, then I'd have room for all of my friends :)
