N17FJ

This article covers airframe N17FJ, a Gulfstream V built in 2000 with manufacturer serial 607. The airframe was produced by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation and is registered in the US; ownership is recorded under TVPX AIRCRAFT SOLUTIONS INC TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in North Salt Lake, UT, US. The airframe carries the STC-approved executive interior modification tailored to serial 607, and registry entries reflect conventional corporate-transport usage rather than commercial airline operation. Maintenance and valuation notes specific to this airframe are limited in the public data set but the aircraft’s year, equipment, and ownership form the primary indicators used in secondary markets and trustee-held asset records.

This Gulfstream V, serial 607, is configured with an STC-approved 13-passenger executive layout; the cabin includes a forward galley and executive seating typical of the Gulfstream V family. With a maximum certified seating of 20, the installed executive fit reduces passenger capacity for enhanced comfort, catering to long-range corporate or government transport missions. Typical mission profiles for this airframe would exploit its intercontinental 6,750 nm range and cruise speed of 459 kts to support transoceanic point-to-point flights from its owner’s Utah base. As a trustee-held corporate asset, operational oversight and maintenance planning are generally aligned with corporate flight department standards and regulatory oversight applicable to US-registered, fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft.

The Gulfstream Aerospace G-V (Gulfstream V) occupies the large-cabin, ultra-long-range business jet segment, offering transcontinental and intercontinental capability alongside high cruise speeds and a 51,000 ft service ceiling. Competing models in this niche include late-model large-cabin business jets offering similar range and cabin amenities; buyer and charter demand for such GV airframes is driven by reliability, range, and cabin flexibility. For trustee-owned examples like N17FJ, maintenance history, STC cabin modifications, and US registration status are primary determinants of resale value and marketability within corporate and fractional operators.
