Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N1878E, is a 2008-build Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) with serial number 5187. It is owned by the New York–based corporation GALAXY LIFT LLC, registered in the United States and listed with a configurable executive cabin of 20 seats. The airframe’s registry records indicate corporate ownership in New York, NY; no public record of earlier owners or notable registry actions is provided. Valuation and condition assessments are not published in the supplied data.

This specific G550 is outfitted with a configurable executive cabin; the aircraft registry lists the interior as fitted for 20 seats, implying a high‑capacity corporate or charter layout rather than a minimalist long‑range executive fit. Avionics for the airframe are Gulfstream’s integrated PlaneView suite, supporting long‑range flight planning and advanced systems monitoring typical of GV‑SP installations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 6,750 nm range and cruise of 459 kts, would include transcontinental and intercontinental corporate transport, positioning flights to and from the owner’s New York base, and on‑demand charter missions. Maintenance considerations for this airframe include standard BR710 engine support and GV‑series avionics lifecycle management as indicated by the installed systems.

The Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) occupies the long‑range large‑cabin business jet niche, known for intercontinental range and high‑altitude cruise capability to 51,000 ft. Competing models in the same market segment include late‑model Bombardier Global series and Dassault Falcon 7X/8X derivatives; buyers typically value the G550 for its balance of range, speed, and proven systems. For this particular airframe, resale and maintenance considerations center on BR710 engine cycles, Gulfstream airframe logbook completeness, and PlaneView avionics currency, all of which heavily influence market demand for corporate‑owned, US‑registered G550s.
