Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N143LP, is a 1988-built Gulfstream G-IV with manufacturer serial number 1050. The aircraft is owned by PACHY MUSIC CORPORATION, a corporate owner based in Bellflower, California, United States, and is registered in the US. The airframe has been described in commercial listings with a reported 12-passenger fireblocked cabin and a mixed Collins/Honeywell avionics fit; this broker-listed cabin description constitutes the principal published interior detail for the airframe. The most recent reported market valuation for this specific ship is $5,800,000, reflecting its vintage, equipment fit and configuration.
The aircraft is configured per a broker listing as a 12-passenger fireblocked layout featuring a forward four-place club, a mid-cabin pair of forward-facing seats, and an aft arrangement of two seats opposite a four-place divan; this layout supports both corporate transport and higher-density special missions within a fireblocked limit. Avionics are reported as a Collins/Honeywell mixed suite: Collins communications/navigation equipment, a Sperry SPZ‑8000 autopilot/EFIS, Honeywell Primus 870 weather radar, TCAS II, dual Collins TDR‑94D Mode S transponders, and dual Honeywell NZ‑2000 FMS units, a fit that supports long-range IFR operations and modern traffic/safety functionality. Typical mission profiles for this configuration would include transcontinental and offshore sectors that leverage the 4,220 nm range and high-altitude cruise capability. Corporate-operator maintenance attention would focus on the Tay engines and vintage airframe systems consistent with a 1988 build and the installed avionics mix.
The Gulfstream G-IV family occupies a long-range, large-cabin niche where operators value transcontinental range, comfortable cabin layouts and robust systems for IFR and oceanic flight. Competing models in the same era and capability bracket include other long-range business jets with similar seating and range; resale and operator demand for late-1980s G-IV airframes is influenced by engine program status, avionics fit and interior condition. For this specific ship, the combination of a fireblocked 12-passenger cabin, mixed Collins/Honeywell avionics and a reported valuation of $5,800,000 will be salient to buyers and charter operators assessing refurbishment, avionics upgrade or role-specific maintenance costs.
