AU's Cessna Citation Ultra. It was also purchased slightly used for around $6 million in 2000.


They bought a new one in 2009.

It's interesting that Auburn University ATD is it's own Corporation.

SEC Owned Aircraft

Not sure how legit this article is, but shows who owns what.

Yeah, and a 767-400 -- fresh from the Boeing assembly hangar -- would only run you... say... $200 million. Chump change if you're OT ballin.

Yeah I didn't want to say anything, but looks like that old plane ran security during the Berlin Airlift.

Thread summary --

arky thought they were showing off their shiny new toy, turned out they got made fun of and trumped. (would you rather own a used bmw or be such a baller that you can rent the top of the line Lamborghini anytime? Exactly).

then arky got trolled by a slight joke about buying better players instead of planes causing them to go into their standard rustled frenzy.

This is pretty true. There isn't a university-run jet in the SEC large enough to transport an entire football team, and buying one would be impractical.

I guess maybe an old 737 or 717 if it had been well-maintained, thoroughly inspected and hadn't logged too many flight hours.

A Lear 40 is a nice ride.

Unlike some other schools, however, MSU flies only pure jets, a brace of Beechjets, to be exact. MSU of course has all kinds of other aircraft as well. Probably more painted in university colors than any other SEC school thanks to Raspet Flight Laboratory.
