GM Again Using Business Jets

General Motors used charter aircraft in November for a two-week investor roadshow designed to tout its third-quarter results and a $13 billion initial public offering. The flights marked the first time that GM has employed private aircraft since Dec. 31, 2008, when the automaker sought government assistance to stay afloat. As part of the rescue plan, the feds required GM to sell its business jet fleet, which it did last year.
