N511KA

This entry covers airframe N511KA, a Gulfstream G-IV built in 1989 with serial number 1111. The aircraft is owned by 1111 GIV LLC, an LLC based in Downey, CA, US, and is registered in the US; the current valuation is listed at $2,815,000. Registry and broker/spec summaries note standard long‑service Gulfstream airframe characteristics for its vintage and list avionics and interior retrofit possibilities rather than a single factory configuration. Condition and market comments reflect a long‑range executive layout certificated for 22 seats but typically furnished for fewer passengers depending on refurbishment.

The cabin of N511KA is described as an executive long‑range layout, typical of Gulfstream G‑IV builds and noted as commonly configured for 14–18 executive passengers while certificated to 22 seats; broker and spec listings indicate an aft galley and forward lavatory arrangement is likely depending on the specific refurbishment. Avionics reported in sales and spec sheets include dual flight management systems, TCAS II, TAWS/EGPWS, SATCOM, and RVSM/ADS‑B Out, with the caveat that the exact panel variant may vary by retrofit. Range and cruise performance point to long‑range executive missions, transcontinental and intercontinental sectors, operated from the owner’s home base in Downey, CA, US, with typical utilization focused on corporate transport and long‑range ferry flights. Maintenance considerations consistent with a 1989 airframe include likely component retrofits and avionics updates reflected in broker descriptions.

As a Gulfstream G-IV airframe, N511KA occupies the long‑range executive market niche characterized by transcontinental capability (approx. 4,216 nm) and high cruise speed (459 kts). The airframe’s older build year (1989) and listed value ($2,815,000) place it in a segment where prospective buyers and operators weigh refurbishment and avionics upgrade costs against acquisition price. Documentation pointing to avionics like RVSM/ADS‑B Out and TAWS/EGPWS suggests common retrofit paths to maintain regulatory and operational relevance for contemporary mission profiles.
