Model & Market Context
This entry describes airframe N43SF, a Gulfstream GVII-G500 manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation in 2023 with serial number 72116. The aircraft is owned by State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company of Bloomington, IL, US, which serves as the primary operator/lessee for corporate transport. The airframe is on the United States registry (US) and has an assessed value of $48,500,000 in its current executive configuration. Notable registry notes include its registration in the United States following delivery in 2023.
The airframe is fitted with an executive configuration, a 9-passenger corporate interior tailored to the owner’s needs, providing a typical long-range business mission profile. Avionics are centered on the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, supporting advanced flight-deck automation and situational awareness for extended oceanic and transcontinental routes. Operated out of the owner’s location in Bloomington, IL, US, the aircraft is likely used for corporate transport and executive travel between major domestic and international nodes consistent with its 5,300 nm range and high cruise speed. Maintenance considerations reflect the modern GVII-G500 fleet standard and the PW814GA engine family’s support network, with scheduled checks and operator-specific interiors factored into lifecycle upkeep.
The Gulfstream GVII-G500 occupies the long-range, high-speed large-cabin business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability combined with high cruise speeds and a high-altitude ceiling. Competing models in this performance tier typically include other ultra-long-range large-cabin business jets; buyer demand focuses on corporate operators and large insurers or corporations seeking a blend of range, speed, and cabin comfort. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific 2023 airframe include its modern avionics suite, the PW814GA engine type, and the documented corporate ownership, all factors that influence marketability and lifecycle value.
