Angelina Jolie Is Travelling in Style with Her Own Private Jet (So Are These 14 Other Celebs)
Morgan Freeman owns three private jets, the Cessna Citation 501, the Cessna 414 twin-engine prop and the Emivest SJ30. Today Freeman has his pilot’s license, which means he can fly any of his planes whenever he wants.
He has always harboured a desire to fly ever since he was a kid, and it’s been reported that he would daydream about piloting a fighter jet rather than pay attention to his teacher. When he joined the Air Force as a mechanic, it was not the right time for him to get licensed. In fact, it took several decades for Freeman to learn how to fly, back when he was 65 years old.
Freeman experienced an aviation set-back in 2005. His plane was forced to crash land in Mississippi after a tire blowout. The plane veered off the end of the runway and into a dirt field. Freeman wasn’t piloting the plane, and he was unharmed. He told the Daily Mail, “'I cannot say the same about my plane. I appreciate the concern and prayers for our safety.”
