Televangelist Keith Moore gets third jet priced at $17.5M; Creflo Dollar’s new jet listed at $18.6M

Televangelist Keith Moore’s ministry Faith Life International has purchased a third jet following a fundraising campaign to raise $10 million.
The used Dassault Falcon 7X jet acquired by Moore’s ministry was listed for sale on the website AircraftVx for $17.5 million, while a new model would have cost $60 million.
The Federal Aviation Administration disclosed the purchase when it certified the jet in May.
The jet’s original tail number was N1902C, but it has been changed to N37KM.
Tail numbers are the aircraft equivalent of license plates for cars. When ministries purchase a jet, the ministry founder’s initials are frequently used in the tail number.
In addition to the Falcon 7X, Faith Life International also owns a Dassault Falcon 900 EX (tail number N7KM) and Raytheon 390 (tail number N8PJ) jets. Moore is a licensed pilot and certified to fly all three jet models; however, both Falcon jets require an additional pilot in the cockpit.
Moore serves as pastor of churches in Sarasota, Florida, and Branson, Missouri. Most of his flights are between these cities. The plane ticket comparison site Kayak finds flights as low as $268 from Sarasota to Springfield-Branson National Airport, with most tickets costing between $424 and $449.
After televangelist Creflo Dollar asked for 200,000 donors to give $300 each to fund the purchase of a new $65 million Gulfstream G650 jet back in 2015, he faced an immediate backlash due to critical international news coverage.
Instead of purchasing the Gulfstream G650, Dollar’s property holding company, World Heir, acquired two used jets: a Gulfstream G-IV (tail number N878SM) and a Learjet 60 (tail number N978SM), which was recently sold.
Trinity Foundation searched for but didn’t find any example of Dollar disclosing to his congregation World Changers Church International and TV audience the recent purchase of a 2010 Gulfstream GV-SP (also known as G550) with the tail number N600JD.
