N5000X

This entry covers the airframe N5000X, a production Gulfstream V (G‑V) built in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 611. The airframe is registered in the United States to TERATORN LLC, an LLC based in Seattle, WA, US, which is listed as the current owner and operator/home base for the aircraft. No additional notable registry actions beyond standard U.S. registration are published for this airframe; the aircraft is appraised with a market value of $9,800,000, reflecting its 2001 build year and configuration.

The airframe is fitted with a three‑zone executive cabin, configured by operators with typical layouts accommodating 14–16 passengers for executive transport; final layout is operator dependent. Avionics on this aircraft follow a common Gulfstream fit with a Honeywell SPX‑8500 suite, supporting long‑range navigation and typical business aviation communications and flight management tasks. In operational use under TERATORN LLC out of Seattle, WA, mission profiles are consistent with intercontinental and transoceanic executive transport given the 6,250 nm range and high‑altitude cruise capability to 51,000 ft. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe reflect common BR710 engine support and Gulfstream heavy‑airframe checks commensurate with a 2001 build, and its valuation indicates mid‑life market positioning.

The Gulfstream V (G‑V) family occupies the ultra‑long‑range business jet niche, offering transoceanic range and cruise speeds near 488 kts, competing with types such as the Bombardier Global Express and later ultra‑long‑range airframes. Buyers and charter operators typically prize the G‑V for its cabin size and range; however, maintenance costs and engine support for the BR700 series factor into lifecycle economics. For a 2001 build like N5000X, resale and operational demand hinge on maintenance history, avionics fit like the Honeywell SPX‑8500, and overall completion condition reflected in the $9,800,000 valuation.
