Jimmy Buffett – Grumman HU-16 Albatross, Estimated $62K
The Grumman HU-16 Albatross, a large twin-radial amphibious flying boat, and Hemisphere Dancer once made headlines. There is no wonder why legendary singer and songwriter, the late Jimmy Buffet, decided to purchase this aircraft due to its awesome features.
However, the singer once needed a criminal attorney, since Jamaican police shot at the Grumman HU-16 based on the suspicion that the singer was transporting something illegal.

The family uses the jet a lot, which is good because it cost them $35 million. They consulted with a financial advisor prior to making the purchase, and it’s good to hear that they are on top of their finances.
Bruce Dickinson – Boeing 757, Estimated $100 Million
The Boeing 757 is the most loved business jet by celebrities, including Bruce Dickinson. The frontman of the heavy metal band Iron Maiden Bruce loves this mid-size, narrow-body airliner.
And he knows a lot about commercial aircraft considering that he’s a licensed commercial pilot. Good thing he has the jet so he can make it with his band to all their tour spots. We just hope they have time to rest as well!

With all of his success, he was able to buy himself a Gulfstream IV for $32 million. We are more than positive that he doesn’t need a credit repair.
