No plans or a location have yet been confirmed.
Currently, Musk is using a 2015 Gulfstream G650, though it’s been indicated that he has ordered a newer private jet that is expected to be delivered in early 2023. This plane will be essential to the billionaire as trips to Central Texas have increased this year as Tesla ramps up production on its Model Y at Giga Texas.
Musk has already boasted about the site’s proximity to the Austin- Bergstrom International airport at the grand opening of the Gigafactory. The airport is only five miles away, but it seems the CEO would like something even closer and more private.However, building a new airport is easier said than done. It requires both federal EPA approval for environmental impacts and FAA approval for air traffic impacts as well as local regulations.
Another question that comes to mind is whether Musk’s jet will still be tracked. You may recall how a 19-year-oldCalled the "Elon Musk's Jet" account on Twitter , it monitors the movements of the billionaire's private jet via bots that are always monitoring air traffic data. In other words, this is public information, simply reposted to Twitter.for a Tesla. Would a new private airport make it easier for Musk to keep his trips private? Only time will tell.
