The John Travolta item is badly out of date. He hasn't owned the 707 since 2017 when he donated it to an historic aircraft group in Australia. It hasn't flown for several years and needs significant maintenance work to obtain FAA certification to ferry it to Australia. It's currently parked at a maintenance facility at the airport in Brunswick, Georgia. Recent news item from Australia:
