An old shitty plane at that. He's not stealing it, he's extorting it somehow. He's a mob guy after all.

It's probably better than his Dump Plane and knows it needs upgrades he can not afford. If he accepts the plane as a
bribecongressional allowed gift, he is going to have the people fix it up for him at our expense.gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 1y
It sounds an awful lot like the Qataris were trying to just get rid of the thing, and orangeboi likes shiny objects, so they presented it to him as a shiny object. AFAIK it was becoming a logistics and maintenance liability for the Qataris, and orangeboi is just gonna use our taxpayer dollars to take care of that, because of course
