Larry Ellison
Larry Ellison's Gulfstream G650, tail N817GS, was tracked departing Sarasota Bradenton International Airport at 18:32 UTC on September 14, 2026, and touching down at Palm Beach International Airport 30 minutes later. The aircraft, a 2014 model owned through Ellison's shell company Wing and a Prayer Inc., made a brief 135-mile hop across the Florida peninsula — a route consistent with the owner's pattern of short hops between his Florida properties and the Palm Beach area that serves as his declared domicile.
If aboard, Larry Ellison would have landed within 300 nautical miles of his 88-meter motor yacht Musashi, which was last reported by AIS tracking via our partner site celebyachts.com as under way on the US East Coast just 12 minutes before the flight's arrival. The convergence of aircraft and vessel in the same region — the yacht's last known position roughly 296 nautical miles from Palm Beach — raises the possibility of a rendezvous, though it is equally plausible the flight was simply a return home after a brief visit to Sarasota's Gulf coast.


The same week, Ellison made news for a different kind of movement: on September 12, he cancelled a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan that would have allowed him to sell $7.5 billion in Oracle stock, according to a regulatory filing reported by CNBC via [247wallst.com](https://247wallst.com/investing/2026/09/14/larry-ellison-cancels-plan-to-sell-7-5-billion-in-oracle-stock-after-his-net-worth-dropped-200-billion-in-a-year/). The reversal came one day after the plan's public disclosure and amid a roughly $200 billion decline in Ellison's net worth over the prior 12 months, from a peak above $400 billion in September 2025 to an estimated $204 billion as of September 13, per Bloomberg. The timing of the Sarasota hop — a day after the cancellation became public — could suggest a need for quiet consultation or simply a routine movement between properties.

Ellison's aviation patterns have long reflected his dual life between Florida and the West Coast. Of 71 trackable flights in 2025, 50 started or ended in Florida, with frequent shuttles between Palm Beach and Stuart's Witham Field, as well as regular runs to Van Nuys and San Jose. His $173 million Manalapan estate, purchased in 2023 and located 20 minutes from Mar-a-Lago, anchors his Florida presence, while his $277 million acquisition of the Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa in 2024 gives him a hospitality foothold in the same exclusive enclave. The Sarasota detour, though brief, adds a new node to a map that already includes Lanai, Indian Wells, and a fleet of three aircraft — the G650, a Citation CJ4, and a Global Express XRS.
Whether the flight was a quick check on the Musashi's position, a meeting with advisors after the stock-sale reversal, or simply a scenic coastal hop, the 30-minute leg is another data point in a life lived at the intersection of extreme wealth, aviation, and maritime mobility. The G650, capable of connecting any two points on earth with a single fuel stop, here connected two points 135 miles apart — a reminder that even the longest-range jets are sometimes used for the shortest trips.
