Model & Market Context
This entry documents airframe N246BD, a Gulfstream GVII-G600 built in 2020 with serial number 73031. The aircraft is owned by NOTUS LLC, an LLC registered in San Jose, CA, US, and carries US registration. The current record reflects a single corporate ownership placement in San Jose; no additional ownership transfers or registry actions are published in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are not published.
This airframe is fitted with an operator‑configured executive cabin in a reported 9‑seat layout, indicating a bespoke corporate interior rather than a standard high‑density fit. Avionics are the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, supporting advanced automation and integrated systems used by modern Gulfstream operators. Typical mission profiles for this configuration center on long‑range corporate transport, leveraging the 6,600 nm range and high cruise speed to support transcontinental and transoceanic nonstop sectors from the home base in San Jose. Maintenance considerations follow those of newer GVII series airframes with twin PW815GA engines; specific schedule or status items are not published in the supplied data.
The GVII‑G600 family occupies the large‑cabin, long‑range business jet niche with emphasis on high speed, extended range and modern avionics integration. With a maximum cruise near 488 kts and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft, the type competes with other ultralong‑range business jets in missions requiring transoceanic capability and point‑to‑point corporate mobility. Demand among corporate owners and charter operators typically favors clean, low‑time examples with operator‑configured interiors; resale and maintenance considerations for this particular airframe are driven by its relatively recent manufacture (2020), Gulfstream electronic system commonality, and PW815GA engine support infrastructure.
