N510MG

This entry covers the Gulfstream airframe registered as N510MG, a 1998-built Gulfstream IV-SP with serial number 1349. The aircraft is owned by SUPERIOR TRANSPORTATION ASSOCIATES INC, a corporation based in Costa Mesa, CA, US, and operates on a US registration. Notable registry and valuation highlights include a reported market value of $4,000,000, reflecting its age and configuration among late-1990s Gulfstream IV-series examples.

The airframe is configured to accommodate 22 seats, consistent with high-capacity executive or corporate shuttle layouts typical for its model and era. Operating from its owner’s base in Costa Mesa, CA, US, the aircraft’s long-range capability of 4,220 nm and cruise speed of 459 kts enable transcontinental and select transoceanic missions within the Gulfstream IV-SP performance envelope. Given the 1998 build year and an assessed value of $4,000,000, maintenance planning and component life-cycle tracking are relevant considerations for continued operations; specific avionics fit and cabin amenities for this tail number are not published in the supplied data. Routine operator responsibilities would include management of two Rolls‑Royce Tay 611-8 / TAY 611SER powerplants and adherence to service directives appropriate for late-1990s Gulfstream airframes.

This airframe belongs to the Gulfstream G-IV family (Gulfstream IV-SP), a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet class characterized here by a high cruise speed (459 kts), extended range (4,220 nm), and a reported service ceiling of 45,000 ft. The combination of a 22-seat interior and the twin Rolls‑Royce Tay 611-8 / TAY 611SER engines positions the type for high-capacity corporate transport and long-range point-to-point operations. Market and resale considerations for this specific 1998 airframe are reflected in its stated valuation of $4,000,000, which informs decisions on refurbishment, maintenance investment, and utilization within the owner’s fleet.
