Business jet, private jet, or bizjet, is a term describing a jet aircraft, usually of smaller size, designed for transporting groups of up to 19 individuals. Business jets may be adapted for other roles, such as the evacuation of casualties or express parcel deliveries, and some are used by public bodies, government officials or the armed forces. The more formal terms of corporate jet, executive jet, VIP transport or business jet tend to be used by the firms that build, sell, buy and charter these aircraft.

“all the arts lose virtue
Against the essential reality
Of creatures going about their business among the equally
Earnest elements of nature.”

Invincible modes of the sea, hearing:

To the purring jet yellowing the murder story,
Deaf to the pathos circling in the air.”
