N259EE

This entry covers the Gulfstream G-IV airframe bearing registration N259EE, built in 2001. The aircraft is listed as owned by TVPX AIRCRAFT SOLUTIONS INC TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in North Salt Lake, UT, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe is a fixed‑wing multi‑engine business jet typical of late-model G‑IV examples; recorded valuation for this unit is $3,000,000, reflecting market and condition factors associated with early‑2000s Gulfstream G‑IVs. Registered to a corporate trustee in Utah, the asset is commonly placed in owner/operator corporate service or charter pools under similar arrangements.

The airframe typically accommodates executive cabin configurations in the 14–19 passenger range, though some operators install high‑density or ferry arrangements consistent with certificated maximum variations; this specific airframe is noted with a 22‑seat capacity listing, indicating a high‑density or alternative certified layout. Avionics fit for typical G‑IV installations is the Honeywell SPZ-8000, supporting long‑range navigation and standard business‑jet flight operations. With a long cruise range of 4,216 nm and cruise speeds around 466 kts, operational profiles for this airframe include transcontinental and transoceanic point‑to‑point executive transport, ferry flights, and high‑utilization charter missions. Maintenance considerations follow Gulfstream and Rolls‑Royce schedules for the Tay 611‑8 engines and airframe checks typical of early‑2000s production, with ownership through a corporate trustee often used to simplify asset management and regulatory compliance.

The Gulfstream G‑IV family occupies a long‑range large‑cabin niche, offering intercontinental capability with high cruise speed and a mid‑40,000 ft service ceiling. In its era it competed with long‑range variants from Bombardier and Dassault, appealing to buyers seeking cabin size and range balanced against acquisition and operating costs. Resale and maintenance of 2001 G‑IVs are influenced by engine life‑limits, avionics original fit (here the Honeywell SPZ‑8000), and interior configuration; the recorded market value of $3,000,000 for this airframe reflects typical depreciation and the influence of high‑density seat layouts on utility and resale.
