STOCKTON ― Looking for a little faster type of transportation? A fighter jet like the one in the movie "Top Gun" is up for sale in Stockton.
Wolfe Aviation is selling a Swedish Interceptor for $175,000 and the price is dropping. The owners say they're willing to lower the price substantially just to get rid of it.
But at more than $5 per gallon for fuel, few people can afford to fly it.
"Prices have gone down, especially on aircraft like this that consume a lot of fuel and consume a lot of fuel it does," say Verlyn Wolfe of Wolfe Aviation.
The jet blows through 100 gallons a minute when the jet if flying supersonic. That's $5,000 every ten minutes.
