Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N237GA is a factory-built Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) delivered in 2015, serial 5523, and registered in the US. It is recorded as owned by ORANGE COUNTY/SUNBIRD AVIATION LLC, a corporation based in Costa Mesa, CA, US, and remains associated with that corporate operator as its principal home-base interest. Registered to ORANGE COUNTY/SUNBIRD AVIATION LLC upon acquisition, the airframe's build year and completion-standard features support its maintained value and market positioning. Current condition and configuration detail the aircraft at an estimated valuation of $46,500,000.
This specific GV‑SP (G550) airframe is completed to a typical executive standard supporting a 14–18 place layout; for this aircraft the fitted seating count is 18, with a forward galley and multiple living areas as part of the completion-specific interior. Avionics are specified as Honeywell Primus Epic / PlaneView avionics, giving it modern integrated flightdeck capabilities for long-range mission planning and single-pilot augmentation features common to the family. Operational missions for N237GA are consistent with transcontinental and intercontinental executive transport—leveraging the 6,750 nm range and a cruise of 488 kts—from its operator base in Costa Mesa, CA, US. Maintenance considerations follow Gulfstream and Rolls‑Royce scheduled programs for BR700-series engines and GV‑class airframe inspections relevant to its build year, interior completions and high-utilization corporate roles.
The Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) occupies the long-range large-cabin niche of purpose-built corporate jets, combining high cruise speed and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft for optimal point-to-point capability. Competing models in this segment typically include other ultra-long-range offerings from major business-jet manufacturers; buyer and charter demand tends to favor airframes with late-model completions and modern avionics suites such as Honeywell Primus Epic / PlaneView. For this 2015 serial 5523 example, resale and maintenance considerations emphasize engine time on the Rolls‑Royce BR710 pair, completion-specific interior condition, and the verified ownership/registry record under ORANGE COUNTY/SUNBIRD AVIATION LLC, all factors that influence residual value and marketability.
