    Jerry Yang's $45 million private jet for sale?

    A tipster points us to a used Bombardier Global Express for sale in Oregon, similar to the one pictured here. Owned by JAY Aviation, it's likely Jerry Yang's private jet. And before you start thinking this means the beleaguered Yahoo CEO won't be flying much after stepping down, rumor has it that this amounts to a trade-in, as Yang is allowed to continue using it while it's being offered for sale — and is looking to buy a new plane. How much will the jet set you back? The Global Express line sells new for around $45 million. Where has Jerry visited in posh, private comfort these last few years? Thanks to planespotting hobbyists, photos from stops around the world are plentiful. After the jump, details of the technology appurtanances from Ethernet jacks for in-flight Internet browsing to a somewhat anachronistic VHS deck.
