N281WC

The airframe bearing tail number N281WC is a 2024-build Gulfstream G280 manufactured by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) with serial 2294. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by WILLIAMS COMPANIES INC, a corporation based in Tulsa, OK, US; this ownership is the primary recorded registry action for the airframe. The condition and industry valuation for this specific G280 is listed at $24,406,984, reflecting a recent production example with modern systems and limited operational accumulation. Registration and ownership were recorded to WILLIAMS COMPANIES INC upon delivery, establishing a corporate operator profile tied to Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The cabin configuration for this airframe conforms to the Gulfstream G280 typical layout of 8–10 executive seats with the flexibility for up to 2 living areas, a forward galley and an aft lavatory, supporting corporate transport and longer-range business missions. Avionics are the PlaneView280™ suite, which is Pro Line Fusion-based, providing integrated flight management, situational awareness and advanced avionics common to late-production G280s. As owned by a corporate entity in Tulsa, the aircraft’s mission profile is expected to center on executive transport, regional to transcontinental trips within its 3,600 nm capability, and ad hoc charter or company logistics where permitted. Maintenance considerations follow factory support for the Honeywell HTF7250G engines and Pro Line Fusion avionics architecture; being a 2024 serial, the airframe benefits from new-production warranties and initial maintenance intervals.

The Gulfstream G280 occupies a super-midsize business jet niche emphasizing transcontinental range with high cruise speeds; this airframe’s 459 kts cruise and 45,000 ft ceiling are representative of the model’s performance envelope. Competing models typically include offerings from Bombardier and Textron’s mid-to-large cabin jets, with buyer demand favoring newer, low-time examples — a profile matched by serial 2294. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific G280 are influenced by its 2024 manufacture date, modern avionics fit with PlaneView280™, factory-supported Honeywell engines, and corporate ownership, all of which tend to support stronger marketability and predictable maintenance tracking.
