Derived from the highly successful and desirable GIV, the Gulfstream V was the world’s first ultra-long-range, large-cabin private aircraft, capable of operating at speeds up to Mach 0.9 and altitudes up to 51,000 feet – far above the weather, and virtually all other aircraft. Featuring a maximum range of 6,500 nm, the GV is powered by dual Rolls-Royce BR700 high-bypass turbofan engines with full authority digital engine controls (FADEC) that improve performance and maximize efficiency. Compared to the GIV, all GVs offer a fuselage lengthened by 5′ forward of the main entry door and two feet aft of the wing,
The Gulfstream GIV-SP has been the leader among large-cabin private jets since its introduction in 1986, offering the impressive capability of flying 11 passengers and crew from Tokyo to Seattle at a speed of .80 Mach. Between 14 and 18 passengers may ride comfortably in its expansive cabin that is 18 inches longer than the GIII’s already spacious interior, while 169 cubic feet of baggage space is accessible in-flight. The GIV-SP’s Rolls-Royce Tay Mk 610-8 engines produce 12,240 pounds of thrust each, allowing a sea level takeoff in 5,450 feet while also resulting in low interior noise and vibration levels.

No other aircraft is synonymous with the term private jet like the Gulfstream GIII; indeed, its distinctive appearance and impressive ramp presence are what come to mind when many people think of private jets, and its legendary design aesthetic has influenced every other Gulfstream aircraft since its introduction in 1980. The GIII is distinguished by its five oval cabin windows per side, 10 percent greater wingspan over the earlier Gulfstream GII, and large winglets that optimize climb performance and cruise efficiency. Its twin Rolls-Royce Spey turbofans offer a range of more than 3,500 nm with eight passengers onboard at its
The undisputed flagship of the Gulfstream line, and the company’s fastest private jet with a top speed of Mach .925, the G650 offers an unparalleled blend of luxury, performance, and efficiency. Gulfstream’s first completely clean-sheet design since its original Gulfstream I turboprop, the G650 includes a complex oval-shaped fuselage that offers a lower and wider cabin floor than traditional circular cabin cross-sections, resulting in vastly more interior space (further complimented by larger cabin windows) while also presenting less fuselage surface to the slipstream, reducing aerodynamic drag and improving range. The G650 was the 2014 winner of the distinguished Collier Trophy,

Entering service in 2019 as the successor to the legendary G550, the Gulfstream G600 private jet updates the ultra-long-range business jet family for the modern era. The G600 will feature a fuselage cross-section similar to the flagship G650, comprised of four circular arcs yielding greater cabin floor space and width over the G550, with a nearly four feet of additional length compared to the similarly new Gulfstream G500. As with the G500, the G600 will also sport a supercritical wing design – again based on the G650, and with the same 36° sweep – but the G600 offering an 8’
Certified in 2003, the Gulfstream G550 is widely regarded as one of the finest private jet offerings of all time. Improvements over the earlier GV include a Honeywell Advanced Flight Deck Display Suite with optional crew heads-up displays and enhanced vision capabilities, as well as a relocated main entry door, a seventh cabin window pair, and additional cabin improvements for increased baggage space, external visibility, and comfort, and a maximum range of up to 6,750 nm. More than 450 G550s have been delivered, including a variant introduced in 2004, dubbed the G500, with slightly reduced range of 5,800 nautical miles.
Unveiled in 2014 and slated for first deliveries in 2018, the new Gulfstream G500 strikes an optimal balance of speed, maneuverability, and comfort that helps passengers maximize every minute of their travel time. Replacing the storied G450 in Gulfstream’s lineup, the G500 combines Gulfstream’s legendary performance, reliability, luxury, and support services, with fully modern technologies including fly-by-wire flight controls, a supercritical wing design, and fuel-efficient Pratt & Whitney PW800 turbofan powerplants. Sharing many design similarities with the larger, flagship G650, the G500 offers 2 more headroom, 7 more cabin width, and 8 greater cabin floor width than the G450 and
