N280AF

The airframe bearing tail number N280AF is a Gulfstream G280 built in 2017 by IAI LTD, serial 2129. It is registered in the United States and is owned by the corporation AFLAC INC of Columbus, GA, US, which serves as the operator/home base for this airframe. Registration and corporate ownership are recorded under a US registration for a corporate operator based in Columbus, Georgia. Publicly available records attached to this airframe indicate a corporate-executive use profile with no additional ownership transfers or lease arrangements published in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific Gulfstream G280 is fitted in a typical executive configuration supporting up to 10 seats in two living areas, with a forward galley and an aft lavatory, and is illuminated by 19 large oval windows, matching the manufacturer’s common executive layout. Avionics are installed as the manufacturer-standard Gulfstream PlaneView280™, supporting advanced flight-management and situational-awareness features expected for corporate operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe align with medium-range corporate transport and intercity executive travel within its 3,600 nm capability and cruise of 459 kts, operating from its Columbus, Georgia base under corporate flight department management. Maintenance considerations follow the twin Honeywell HTF7250G engine maintenance programs and Gulfstream airframe schedules typical for 2017-build G280s.

The Gulfstream G280 occupies a mid-to-large super-midsize business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental range for corporate operators. With twin Honeywell AS907-2-1G (HTF7250G) powerplants producing 7,624 lbf each, the type competes with similarly classed jets for buyers and charter demand seeking a balance of cabin comfort and performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2017 airframe emphasize engine program enrollment, avionics support for the PlaneView280 suite, and correlation of cabin configuration to charter or corporate demand.
