N3688

This airframe, registered as N3688, is a 2023-build Gulfstream G280 with manufacturer serial number 2262. The aircraft was built by IAI Ltd for Gulfstream Aerospace and is listed in US civil registers as owned by UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, UT, US. The registration shows trustee ownership rather than an individual operator, and the aircraft’s documented home base corresponds to the owner’s Salt Lake City location. Registry entries identify the airframe as a US-registered fixed-wing multi-engine business jet, and the airframe is valued at $24,500,000 in contemporary listings.

The airframe is configured with a typical executive cabin layout of eight to ten places while being certificated for up to 21 seats, allowing flexibility for high-density transport or corporate executive interiors. Avionics are fitted with the Gulfstream PlaneView280™ suite, supporting modern glass cockpit functionality and advanced flight management for long-range business missions. Typical operations for this G280 would include transcontinental and international point-to-point flights within its 3,600 nm range at cruise speeds near 482 kts and flight levels up to 45,000 ft. As a trustee-owned asset, operational control and maintenance scheduling may be managed by third-party operators or management companies under lease or charter arrangements; maintenance considerations align with the HTF7250G engine family service schedules and Gulfstream-supported airframe programs.

The Gulfstream G280 occupies a niche for super-midsize business jets offering near-long-range capability with strong cruise speed and high-altitude performance. Competing models address similar missions in the super-midsize segment; demand typically comes from corporate flight departments, fractional and charter operators, and trust-owned fleet assets. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2023 airframe center on service status of the Honeywell HTF7250G engines and the desirability of the PlaneView280™ cockpit, factors that influence valuation and time-on-market for ownership entities such as UMB BANK NA TRUSTEE.
