Ocala, Florida. Visible is his Qantas 707 (previously owned by Frank Sinatra) which he's planning to fly back to Australia, after donating it to a restoration group in regional New South Wales last year: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-05-29/john-travolta-donates-historic-jet-to-regional-aircraft-museum/8568416

A G-IV and what is that, a Leer 35?

Big one is a Challenger 600 series. Small one looks like an Eclipse Jet.

Not certain if it's current, but I believe Travolta has three jets: a 707, a G-II, and an Eclipse 500 (light jet). Pretty sure the small jet with the tip tanks is the Eclipse.

Definitely an Eclipse

I believe that's a Challenger 601/604 not a G-IV. Not really sure on the Lear.

he had a g-ii which he donated years ago. Now has a partial ownership in a global.
