Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N1HC, is a 2003-built Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) with serial number 5009. It is recorded as registered to HARDESTY-GULFSTREAM LLC in Tulsa, OK, US, and the company is listed as the current owner and operator based in Tulsa, OK, US. The airframe has an established U.S. registration (US) and is presented in market records with an indicative value of $16,900,000, reflecting its condition and configuration for executive transport. Notable registry details include its continuous civil operation since manufacture and maintenance under corporate ownership rather than a commercial carrier.
The cabin for this airframe conforms to Gulfstream typical executive layouts and is described as a Typical executive layout (14–20 seats depending on completion) with forward galley and forward/ aft lavatory options, with this example finished to accommodate up to 20 seats. Avionics are the commonly fitted Gulfstream configuration, listed as PlaneView / Honeywell Primus Epic, supporting long-range business missions, advanced flight-management tasks and integrated systems monitoring. Operated from its Tulsa base by the owning LLC, the aircraft’s missions are predominantly transcontinental and intercontinental corporate transport, leveraging its 6,750 nm range and high cruise speed for nonstop city-pair sectors. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow corporate operator schedules and the BR710 engine maintenance program typical for Rolls‑Royce-powered Gulfstreams.
The Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) family occupies a long-range, large-cabin niche in business aviation, offering transoceanic capability and high cruise speeds, typified by this airframe’s 459 kts cruise and 51,000 ft ceiling. Competing models include other long-range types from Bombardier and Dassault; the G550 remains sought after for charter and corporate buyers seeking a mature platform. Maintenance and resale considerations for a 2003 serial 5009 focus on engine-life remaining, avionics retrofits and completion condition; the indicated value of $16,900,000 reflects those lifecycle and market-demand factors.
