Elvis Presley’s Private Flight From 1962 Has Finally Been Sold – The Interior Is Amazing

Elvis Presley bought his own plane in 1962 and had it modified to his specifications.

You can tell the place is fancy just by looking at the carpet, hardwood panels, and crimson velvet chairs.

After Elvis’s death in 1977, the Lockheed Jetstar model airplane he had possessed for almost three decades sat unused. After that, it was placed on a road in Roswell, New Mexico, USA, to serve as a tourist attraction.

But, the jet was recently sold at auction in Florida for $260,000 to a telephone bidder who claimed to be an Elvis enthusiast.

Elvis and his father, Vernon Presley, were on board the jet when it first rose above the clouds.

Even after more than three decades have passed since Elvis’s untimely demise, the plane has remained in the same New Mexico location. If you look closely, you’ll notice that the plane’s exterior is painted a muted red. Still, the plane is in surprisingly decent shape for its age.
