N226RS

The airframe bearing registration N226RS is a 2002-built Gulfstream G‑IV (GIV‑SP), serial 1479, currently held by 226RS LLC of Cypress, Texas. The aircraft is registered in the US and is presented on the civil registry under that tail; ownership is recorded to 226RS LLC and domiciled in Cypress, TX. As a 2002 airframe with a documented executive configuration and certificated seating for up to 22 occupants, its market valuation is listed at $5,800,000, reflecting age, equipment baseline and typical condition considerations for this generation of Gulfstream G‑IV airframes. No additional public registry actions beyond its US registration are recorded in the provided data.

The aircraft is fitted in an executive layout typical of Gulfstream installations, normally accommodating 12–13 passengers in a comfortable business-jet arrangement while being certificated for up to 22 seats for higher-density operations. Avionics are listed as Collins Pro Line 4, a common fit for older G‑IVs though operator-specific upgrades are possible and may affect mission flexibility. With a long-range capability of 4,220 nm and a cruise speed near 460 kts, typical missions would include transcontinental and long overwater business travel operated from its Cypress, Texas base; maintenance considerations reflect the aircraft’s 2002 manufacture date and the legacy systems common to this model.

As a member of the Gulfstream G‑IV (GIV‑SP) family, the airframe combines the type’s long-range capability and high cruise speed with the trade-offs of early‑2000s avionics and systems. The listed performance figures—4,220 nm range, 460 kts cruise and 45,000 ft ceiling—define its operational niche within established long‑range executive platforms. Market and resale considerations for this specific airframe will typically reference its 2002 vintage, engine model (TAY 611 series), current certification for up to 22 seats, and the presence of the Collins Pro Line 4 avionics suite, all factors that influence buyer demand and maintenance planning.
