N25RA

This airframe, registered as N25RA, is a 1997-built Gulfstream G-IV SP, manufacturer serial 1310, currently owned by RADZ AIRWAYS LLC (an LLC based in Solana Beach, CA, US). The airframe maintains a US registration and is recorded with a reported market valuation of $4,995,000, reflecting the late-1990s Gulfstream G-IV SP depreciation and retained operational capability. Maintenance and equipment records list a mixed Collins/Honeywell avionics fit and specific installed items, indicating continued airworthiness oversight and avionics support. No alternate ownership timeline is published beyond the current RADZ AIRWAYS LLC ownership and US registration noted in records.

The cabin of N25RA is configured for executive transport in a typical 14-place layout: a forward single-seat/double-club arrangement, a mid‑cabin divan opposite a chair, and an aft four‑place dining/conference area with a jump seat; the fit also includes a forward crew lavatory and an aft galley. Avionics are reported as a Collins/Honeywell mixed suite with equipment entries listing Collins ADF‑462, DME‑442, and Collins VHF‑422C, supporting conventional IFR navigation and communications. With a 4,220 nm range and a 459 kt cruise, the airframe is suited to transcontinental and near-transoceanic executive missions, commonly operated from its home base region in southern California. Operational considerations for this airframe include typical G‑IV SP maintenance items and the supportability of Rolls‑Royce Tay engines and legacy avionics components.

The Gulfstream G‑IV SP, represented here by N25RA, occupies the long-range large-cabin executive niche for late-1990s business jets, offering higher cruise speeds and cabin volume compared with older mid-size types. Competing models from the period include late-model Falcon 2000 variants and early Bombardier Challengers; buyers and charter operators seek verified maintenance history and avionics modernization when assessing resale. Given the airframe’s age and the listed value of $4,995,000, typical market considerations include engine program status, inspection records, and potential upgrades to avionics and cabin systems to maintain charter or corporate utility.
