N18GN

This airframe, registration N18GN, is a Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) built in 2008 with manufacturer serial number 5180. It is recorded as owned by NAIR LLC, an LLC based in Purchase, NY, US, and registered in the United States under standard civil registry practices. The airframe has been operated from its owner’s New York base and carries the manufacturer’s long‑range executive specification; valuation records list the airframe at $15,750,000, reflecting its condition and market factors for a 2008 G550.

The specific cabin for this G550 is noted as a typical manufacturer/registry‑dependent executive layout accommodating 14–20 passengers, and this airframe is listed with a 20-seat maximum configuration in registry records. It is equipped with Gulfstream PlaneView avionics, the Honeywell Primus Epic‑based integrated flight deck standard on the GV‑SP/G550 line, supporting long‑range corporate operations and high‑altitude cruise. Typical missions for this airframe include transcontinental and intercontinental executive transport, leveraging the 6,750 nm range and 51,000 ft ceiling for nonstop long‑leg flights and favorable fuel‑efficiency cruise at 459 kts. Maintenance considerations for this individual aircraft follow Gulfstream and Rolls‑Royce service schedules for BR710 engines and avionics shop support for PlaneView systems; the operator base in Purchase, New York, provides access to established maintenance facilities.

The Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) occupies the long‑range large‑cabin business jet niche, offering intercontinental capability and high cruise performance relative to earlier Gulfstream models. Competing models in its era included long‑range offerings from Bombardier and Dassault; buyer and charter demand for well‑maintained G550s remains strong for corporate and fractional operators. For this 2008 airframe, resale and maintenance considerations center on engine time, avionics retrofits, and interior condition, factors reflected in the $15,750,000 valuation and the continued preference for the PlaneView flight deck in the corporate market.
