At just 24 years old, American content creator and entrepreneur Alex Gonzalez, known online as fxalexg, has swapped the streets for the skies after purchasing a $3.2 million Learjet 45 — funding the deal in part by selling his now-famous pink Bugatti.
“I worked five weeks straight, barely slept,” Gonzalez said in a video shared with his followers. “Selling the Bugatti was tough, but this jet is next level.”
Manufactured by Bombardier, the Learjet 45 is a mid-size business aircraft known for its reliability and executive-level features. With seating for eight to nine passengers and space for two pilots, the aircraft is equipped with Honeywell TFE731-20 engines, a four-screen EFIS avionics system, and an onboard APU for ground operations.
Inside, the cabin offers luxury amenities including plush seating, ambient lighting, charging ports, a bar area, and fold-out tables for business or leisure. The jet’s build year aligns with Gonzalez’s own birth year, adding a layer of personal symbolism to the acquisition.
The sale of the bright pink Bugatti, a vehicle that helped Gonzalez gain notoriety online, represents a shift in priorities. “The Bugatti turned heads, but this jet turns pages in my story,” he added.
While high-net-worth individuals like Max Verstappen and tech moguls have long dominated private jet headlines, Gonzalez’s leap into aviation at such a young age makes him a standout. His Learjet 45 may not rival $70 million sky palaces, but it certainly cements his position among a new generation of ambitious flyers.
