Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N268VT, is a Gulfstream G-IV(SP) built in 1993 with manufacturer serial number 1220. It is registered in the US and is owned by AVIRE LLC of West Hollywood, California. The airframe's listing/spec sheet identifies one operator/owner located in West Hollywood, CA, and the machine is presented with an executive interior and full long-range capability consistent with Gulfstream G-IV(SP) examples of its vintage. No additional public registry actions are noted in the supplied data.
The aircraft is fitted with an executive 14-passenger interior in a forward galley / club seating configuration as noted in the available sale listing, while the type is certificated up to 22 seats for other configurations. Avionics for this airframe are listed as Honeywell SPZ-series IFCS flight control integration, Honeywell Mark V EGPWS, TCAS II, and Collins communication/navigation suites per the available listing/spec sheet. Typical mission profiles for this G-IV(SP) include transcontinental and transoceanic executive transport within its 4,100 nm range envelope at cruise speeds around 459 kts, operating from its West Hollywood-based owner/operator for on-demand business and charter missions. Maintenance considerations reflect the age and systems fit of a 1993 Gulfstream airframe and the need for continuing avionics and engine programme support appropriate to Rolls-Royce Tay-equipped large-cabin business jets.
The Gulfstream G-IV(SP) occupies a long-range large-cabin niche offering high-speed cruise and intercontinental range, with this airframe’s 4,100 nm capability and 45,000 ft ceiling typical of the model family. Competing models in its era and mission set include later Challenger and Falcon large-cabin types as well as newer Gulfstream derivatives; buyer and charter demand tends toward aircraft with updated avionics and interiors. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 1993 G-IV(SP) such as N268VT focus on engine programme enrollment, airframe maintenance history, and the condition of the executive interior and avionics suite identified in the listing.
