Does Elon Musk own planes?

He's been expanding his collectibles; Musk owns four jets and recently dropped $78 million on a Gulfstream G700, intended to replace his Gulfstream G650ER.



Yes, Elon Musk owns a fleet of high-performance private aircraft, which are registered through a shell company called Falcon Landing LLC, linked to SpaceX and Tesla. As of early 2026, his active fleet is headlined by the Gulfstream G650ER (N628TS), a $70 million jet capable of flying 7,500 nautical miles nonstop. He also recently took delivery of the new flagship Gulfstream G700, which is valued at approximately $78 million and features one of the largest and most advanced cabins in business aviation. In addition to these ultra-long-range jets, Musk's fleet has historically included two Gulfstream G550s (N272BG and N502SX) and a smaller Dassault Falcon 900B. These planes serve as essential "mobile offices," allowing him to maintain an intense schedule between SpaceX Starbase in Texas, Tesla headquarters in Austin, and various global commitments. Despite public scrutiny over his "carbon footprint" and the tracking of his flights via ADS-B data, Musk maintains that the jets are vital tools for managing multiple multi-billion dollar enterprises simultaneously, often logging hundreds of flight hours per year to stay "on the ground" where his engineering teams need him most.
