New lease of life for former Government jet

The plane – which was sold for less than half a million Euro – now has an insurance value of €5 million.

That's according to a Sinn Féin TD who's brought new evidence to the Public Accounts Committee.

David Cullinane says the jet has been restored and is now being rented out for luxury private travel around the world.

He says the plane's records show it was possible to repair the Gulfstream jet for full use.
