N290PS

This airframe, registered as N290PS, is a 1999-built Gulfstream G-IVSP with serial number 1376. The airframe is recorded as owned by RPS AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Capitol Heights, MD, US, and is held on the U.S. registry. The type is a fixed-wing, multi-engine executive transport certificated to carry up to 22 seats; the specific operator/home base activity is tied to the listed owner’s location. Registration and equipment records indicate ongoing civil operation with avionics entries and normal certification consistent with business jet service.

The cabin for this airframe is described as a typical 12–14 place executive layout while being certificated up to 22 seats, allowing flexibility between luxurious executive interiors and higher-density seating for charter or corporate shuttle roles. Avionics fit is reported as a Collins suite in the equip records with examples such as Collins 462 ADF, Collins DME 442, and Collins HF‑9000 COMM, supporting long-range IFR and oceanic operations. With a 4,200 nm range and a cruise of 459 kts, typical missions for this airframe include transcontinental U.S. flights and non‑stop overseas crossings; operations are consistent with owner-based or charter usage from the Capitol Heights, MD area. Maintenance considerations follow Gulfstream G‑IVSP practices for twin Rolls‑Royce Tay installations and the common avionics suite noted in the records.

The Gulfstream G‑IVSP family occupies the large-cabin, long-range business jet niche, offering transcontinental and intercontinental performance with high cruise speeds and a 45,000 ft service ceiling. Comparable competitors include large-cabin derivatives from Bombardier and Dassault that target similar missions; buyer and charter demand historically favors well‑maintained examples with updated avionics and interiors. For this specific serial, maintenance and resale considerations will center on the Tay 611‑8 engine program status, the Collins avionics baseline, and the flexibility offered by certification up to 22 seats.
