N280FW

This entry describes a specific Gulfstream G280 airframe, registered as N280FW, manufactured in 2015 by IAI Ltd (Israel Aerospace Industries) with serial number 2076. The aircraft is recorded on the U.S. register and is held by an unnamed LLC, with no public operator or fixed home base published in the available registry data. The registry also documents a 21-seat configuration, indicating a transport or high-density layout for this airframe rather than the typical VIP fitout. No publicly listed valuation or condition report is included in the provided data.

This Gulfstream G280 airframe is shown in registry records with a 21-seat layout, while the model is commonly converted to a VIP executive cabin of 8–10 passengers; the entry therefore notes both the typical executive fit and the aircraft’s documented transport-capable seating. Avionics are listed as Gulfstream PlaneView280™, supporting modern flight management, navigation and integrated cockpit operations typical of the type. Operationally the G280’s range of 3,600 nm and cruise of 459 kts suit medium- to long-range executive transport, high-speed point-to-point charters, or regional corporate shuttle missions; specific base of operations for this airframe is not published. Maintenance considerations follow manufacturer and Honeywell engine support networks and reflect the standard G280 servicing intervals for airframe and HTF7250G engines.

The Gulfstream G280 occupies a performance niche as a super-midsize business jet balancing transcontinental range with high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft service ceiling. It competes against other super-midsize types offering similar speed/range envelopes and two-engine layouts. Buyer and charter demand typically favors aircraft with VIP interiors; this airframe’s registry-record 21-seat configuration suggests potential for transport or special-mission roles, which can affect resale positioning and mission flexibility. Maintenance and resale considerations for this serial include standard HTF7250G engine support and the avionics commonality of the PlaneView280 suite.
