Haaland Has No Private Jet on Record: Part-Owned Piper M600, Now a £2.35M Aircraft Interest via His Company

No aircraft is on record in Erling Haaland's own name. A search of the FAA's October 29, 2026 aircraft files for Haaland, York Promotions and EBH Promotion returned nothing tied to him, though that check has limits because a Norwegian playing in England would be unlikely to use a US register.

His first aircraft was not a jet. On May 20, 2021, E24 reported that Sola M600 AS would own a 2017 Piper M600, a six-seat single-engine turboprop registered LN-ECM and based at Stavanger Airport, Sola. Erling's company EBH Promotion AS held 12.5% and his father Alfie held 25%; two contracting groups, Bertelsen & Garpestad and Velde Industri, held the rest. At the reported price of about 25 million kroner, a 12.5% share equals roughly 3.1 million kroner of airframe. Aftenposten reported the sale of the aircraft on December 31, 2023, citing Finansavisen; the buyer is Anders Eckhoff Johansen.

Three widely repeated claims are wrong. The Mirror's August 2024 report that the pair sold the aircraft in 2021 confused the purchase year with the sale. A January 2024 Finansavisen report of a 2014 Pilatus PC-12 priced at 50 to 70 million kroner concerned a purchase by Sola M600 after Haaland and his father had already sold out; he dismissed it on Instagram as fake news, and ABC Nyheter's correction confirmed his former flying partner bought it. Reports of two private jets stemmed from one line in the accounts of York Promotions Ltd, his image rights company incorporated on December 6, 2022.

Later filings show more. The 2024 accounts, filed in August 2025, book an 'Interest in aircraft' at a cost of £2,354,678, depreciated over the length of the lease. The 2025 accounts, filed on September 30, 2026, show a charge of £470,936 for the year, leaving £1,798,429 on the books. A charge of one-fifth a year implies a five-year term; that is an inference, not a statement in the filing. The accounts are unaudited, and they name no aircraft type, tail number, operator or partner, nor who flies on the aircraft.

Charter flights have also been linked to him. Aftenposten noted sightings of him in a much bigger plane than the M600, and in January 2024 Simple Flying said he had flown around Europe on a VistaJet Bombardier Challenger 850. No tail number has been published for those flights. In October 2024, Norway teammate Jørgen Strand Larsen defended his private flying in Dagbladet.

The case shows how thin the public record on private aircraft use can be. A part-ownership held through a Norwegian company left a trail in the national registry and in E24's reporting, while the later arrangement sits inside a UK image-rights company as a depreciating accounting asset with no type, registration or operator attached. Registers track airframes; they do not track who holds an interest in the right to fly one, and an accounts line alone cannot tell a lease, a fractional share or a dedicated-aircraft programme apart.

That gap is why the story drifted into error. One ambiguous ledger entry became two private jets in circulation, a purchase date was read as a sale date, and a deal made after the Haalands left the ownership group was attributed to them. For operators, brokers and management companies that serve high-profile clients, structuring aircraft access through a personal-brand company keeps the passenger out of the register, but it also leaves the client exposed to whoever reads the filings first and interprets them loosely.

The next filing from York Promotions would show whether the charge continues at the same annual rate, which would be consistent with the depreciation pattern already visible. Only a disclosure from the company or its counterparty would name the aircraft and the arrangement behind it.
