Saker S-1 Personal Fighter Jet
If you've got a few extra bills burning a hole in the pockets of your flight suit, err cargo shorts, and you don't feel like waiting in line for a G6, it might be time to consider pre-ordering a Saker S-1 Personal Jet ($7,000,000). Sure, it's a bit on the pricey side, but you can't put a cost on the time you'll save traveling across the country at Mach .99.

I don't think you necessarily need an instrument rating to fly above 10,000 feet. 18,000 is where Class A starts.
You are correct sir. I meant to type 18,000ft thanks for the correction.
