Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N28VE, is a 2024-build Gulfstream G280 with manufacturer listed as IAI LTD and serial number 2290. The aircraft is owned by VALERO SERVICES INC, a corporation based in San Antonio, TX, US, and is registered in the US registry. The airframe’s recent build year and single corporate owner profile suggest a modern-condition executive transport with an operator/home base connection to San Antonio; no additional ownership transfers or notable registry actions are published in the supplied data.
The cabin of this specific G280 is configured in an executive layout with two living areas, a forward galley and an aft lavatory, supporting typical outfitting for up to 10 passengers. Avionics are provided by Gulfstream PlaneView280™, aligning cockpit systems with the manufacturer’s integrated flightdeck suite for the model. Operated by a corporate owner in San Antonio, the aircraft is well suited to transcontinental and Gulf-to-Pacific missions within its 3,600 nm range and long-range cruise of 458 kts, commonly used for corporate transport, regional executive repositioning, and priority business trips. Maintenance considerations for this airframe will follow manufacturer and Honeywell engine service intervals specific to the HTF7250G, and avionics support is centered on Gulfstream’s PlaneView280 ecosystem.
The Gulfstream G280 occupies the super-midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability—illustrated by this airframe’s 3,600 nm range—and a high single-flight ceiling of 45,000 ft. Competing models in the segment typically include other super-midsize and large-cabin types that balance speed and cabin comfort; this example’s 458 kt cruise and twin HTF7250G engines reflect that performance profile. For buyers and operators, considerations include HTF engine maintenance programs, avionics support for PlaneView280, and resale dynamics tied to recent build-year airframes like this 2024 serial 2290.
