N102DZ

This airframe, registered as N102DZ, is a 1998-built Gulfstream Aerospace G-V, serial number 555, operated for a co-owned entity listed as ELDERBERRY CHESTNUT LLC based in Cheyenne, WY, US. The aircraft is registered in the United States and FAA records note a 20‑seat configuration for this registration. Ownership is recorded to a Cheyenne-based corporate owner and is presented as a co-owned corporation in publicly cited data. Valuation and condition highlights list a market value of $9,995,000, reflecting its late‑1990s build with high-end executive configuration and long-range capability.

The cabin is fitted in an executive layout with reported configurations ranging from 14–20 passengers; the FAA listing for this airframe specifies 20 seats and commercial listings describe a forward galley and multi‑zone cabin. Avionics are a Honeywell SPZ-8500 / DU-885 (PlaneDeck) suite with Triple FMS (6.1) and TCAS II TPU-67B, supporting long overwater and international operations typical of the G-V. Typical mission profiles for this specific aircraft would include transcontinental and intercontinental executive transport enabled by a 6,500 nm range and high cruise speed, operating from its owner/operator base in Cheyenne, WY. Maintenance and operational considerations for this airframe reflect standard heavy‑jet support for late‑1990s Gulfstream Vs, with emphasis on avionics and engine program continuity.

The Gulfstream G-V family occupies a long-range ultra‑large cabin niche, offering high-speed transoceanic capability and a service ceiling to 51,000 ft, where it competes with other long‑range business jets of its era. Typical competitors include contemporary large-cabin designs with similar range and payload profiles. Buyer and charter demand for a 1998 G‑V in executive configuration centers on operators requiring range and cabin flexibility; resale and maintenance considerations are driven by engine program status and avionics refresh needs despite the airframe’s lasting performance credentials.
