Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N103AK is a 2012-build Gulfstream Aerospace GV‑SP (commonly designated G550), manufacturer serial 5387, registered in the United States. The aircraft is owned by the corporate entity Pacific Diversified Investments Inc (registration type: corporation); no public operator or home base is published. No notable registry actions or public ownership transfers are published for this airframe. As a 2012 G550 example, the airframe is commonly valued in transactional listings at approximately $22,618,000, reflecting its age, completion configuration variability and the large‑cabin market position.

This specific G550 is completed in a typical large‑cabin executive layout capable of up to four cabin zones and reports list an outfitting of roughly 20 seats for the tail N103AK; final configurations may vary by completion and interior refurbishment. Avionics are fitted with Gulfstream PlaneView, supporting long‑range business jet operations and advanced flight management typical of the GV‑SP/G550 class. Typical mission profiles for this airframe type include intercontinental corporate transport and long‑range charter missions, leveraging the certified ceiling of 51,000 ft and a maximum range of 6,750 nm; specific routes flown by N103AK are not published. Maintenance considerations align with large‑cabin twin‑engine business jets powered by Rolls‑Royce BR700 series engines, with component support and scheduled inspections guided by manufacturer programs and owner/operator maintenance planning.

The Gulfstream Aerospace GV‑SP (G550) occupies the long‑range large‑cabin niche, offering transcontinental and transoceanic capability while supporting up to around 20 passengers in dense executive configurations. Competing models in this performance and cabin class include other long‑range business jets with similar range and altitude capability; buyer and charter demand for late‑model G550s remains anchored on platform reliability, cabin flexibility, and avionics like Gulfstream PlaneView. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2012 serial 5387 typically reflect engine program status, interior refresh condition, and logbooks — factors that underpin the reported valuation of $22,618,000.
