• Even though Berkshire's NetJets manages over 500 corporate jets and is considered to be the 6th largest airline, Berkshire does not own a corporate jet and does not provide one for its managers or its board of directors.

• Berkshire has more CEOs than any other enterprise and has never lost an acting  CEO to a competing business.
