Rabat - Legendary martial arts movie icon Jackie Chan has reportedly bought a new private jet for $20 million to add to his collection.
According to media reports, Chan is the first Chinese customer to take delivery of the new, state-of-the-art Embraer Legacy 500 Business Jet, which is priced in the catalog at $20 million.
“I’m so thrilled to receive this Legacy 500, a state-of-art executive jet,” Chan said in a statement.
“In the past few years, my Legacy 650 has brought me fantastic traveling experiences and great convenience, allowing me to do more acting and philanthropic works around the world. I’m sure that the performance of the new Legacy 500 will again exceed my expectations, and become a comfortable mobile home and office for me,” he added.
In 2012, Chan bought an Embraer Legacy 650 and slapped a dragon-themed paint job on it.
The Legacy 500 Business Jet is the first executive jet of its size to feature side-stick flight controls.
“The Legacy 500 features our best-to-date technologies and it incorporates designs that maximize passenger comfort and fuel efficiency,” Embraer Executive Jets president and CEO Marco Tulio Pellegrini said in a statement.
