N450WC

This entry documents the Gulfstream G450 airframe bearing tail number N450WC, a Gulfstream GIV‑X built in 2006 with manufacturer serial number 4042. The aircraft is owned by PARK LANDING AVIATION LLC (an LLC based in Madison, NJ, US) and is registered in the US. Notable registry and valuation records list the airframe with an estimated market value of $11,000,000 and reflect a mainstream mid‑2000s Gulfstream G450 in operator service with corporate/charter interests.

The subject airframe is typically outfitted in a standard executive configuration described as a 12–16 passenger layout with a forward galley and forward and aft lavatories, although multiple floorplans are possible and the aircraft is certificated for 22 seats. Avionics are fitted with Gulfstream PlaneView II, supporting advanced flight management, situational awareness and long‑range IFR operations. Based from its owner’s location in Madison, New Jersey, the airframe’s performance — including a long range of 4,350 nm and high cruise speed near 459 kts — suits transcontinental and transatlantic corporate missions, air charter work and high‑utilization ferry flights. Maintenance considerations typical to this airframe include oversight of Tay 611‑8C engines and avionics lifecycle updates commensurate with a 2006 build.

The Gulfstream G450 (GIV‑X) sits in the large‑cabin, long‑range business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability with a high operational ceiling (45,000 ft) and competitive cruise speed. It competes with contemporaries from Bombardier and Dassault for buyers seeking a combination of cabin size, range and runway performance. In the resale and charter market, examples from the mid‑2000s often trade based on maintenance status, engine life, and avionics fit — factors directly relevant to this airframe’s PlaneView II suite and Rolls‑Royce Tay propulsion. The listed valuation of $11,000,000 reflects typical market pricing for a well‑maintained G450 of this vintage.
