Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing registration N1221G is a 2011-built Gulfstream GIV‑X (G450) with manufacturer serial number 4216. The airframe is registered in the United States and is currently held by N1221G LLC, an LLC based in Fort Worth, Texas, US, which serves as the recorded owner and operator/home base for regulatory purposes. There are no other public ownership transfers recorded in the supplied data; the aircraft remains registered to N1221G LLC. Valuation and detailed condition reports for this specific airframe are not published in the provided dataset.

This specific Gulfstream GIV‑X is registered with 22 cabin seats, while a typical executive outfitting for the G450 family configures the interior to about 12–16 seats for business transport; the registered seating count indicates a higher-density certification for this airframe. The installed avionics suite is Gulfstream PlaneView, supporting advanced flight management, navigation and situational awareness consistent with long‑range business jet operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include transcontinental and intercontinental point‑to‑point executive travel within the aircraft’s 4,350 nm capability, usually operating from the owner’s base in Fort Worth, Texas. No specific unique cabin amenities or maintenance deviations are recorded in the provided data.

The Gulfstream GIV‑X (G450) occupies the mid‑to‑large cabin long‑range business jet niche, offering high cruise speed (459 kts) and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft for efficient long‑haul executive missions. In the marketplace it competes with similarly capable aircraft from Bombardier and Dassault in missions requiring transcontinental and near‑intercontinental range; buyer and charter demand historically favors well‑equipped, low‑time airframes. Maintenance considerations for this airframe include Rolls‑Royce Tay engine support and avionics commonality for Gulfstream‑specified PlaneView systems, factors that influence operational costs and resale considerations for a 2011 serial 4216 example.
