One of the aircrafts in the Presidential Fleet, Hawker 4000, with the registration number 5N-FGX/: RC 066, has been advertised for sale.

The Federal Government, in a paid newspaper advertorial in one of the national dailies, on Wednesday announced the plans to have the aircraft sold out to ready buyers.
