Model & Market Context
This entry documents the Gulfstream G280 airframe registered as N280BL, built in 2018 by IAI LTD with manufacturer serial number 2147. The aircraft is listed in registry records as owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE (a Corporation based in Salt Lake City, UT, US), with a United States registration. No public record of other ownership changes is provided in the supplied data. Contemporary valuation and condition notes reflect an estimated market value of $16,000,000 for this specific airframe.
The airframe is configured with a cabin described as typically comprising two living areas and common executive layouts that seat 8–10 passengers, while the airframe is certified for higher seating counts and the registry lists 21 seats; this indicates flexibility for both executive transport and higher-density alternate configurations. The installed avionics suite is Gulfstream’s PlaneView280 (PlaneView280/PlaneView 280 features), with options for EFVS and Synthetic Vision. Typical mission profiles for a G280 of this specification center on medium‑to‑long-range executive travel, transcontinental U.S. sectors and international flights within the aircraft’s 3,600 nm range and cruise speed near 459 kts. The corporate owner’s Salt Lake City location suggests regional base operations; maintenance considerations align with Honeywell HTF7250G engine support and Gulfstream avionics service requirements for the PlaneView280 suite.
The Gulfstream G280 occupies a super‑midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental range, high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft ceiling that appeal to charter operators and corporate flight departments. Competing models typically include other super‑midsize jets with similar range and speed; buyer demand favors airframes with modern avionics like PlaneView280 and proven Honeywell HTF engines. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific 2018 airframe center on engine maintenance cycles for the HTF7250G and the desirability of its flexible cabin certification (registry listing 21 seats) when marketed to operators seeking either executive comfort or increased payload capacity.
