The cabin of this G550 is configured in the typical Gulfstream executive layout, listed as accommodating 14–18 executive seats in 3–4 cabin zones while the airframe’s official seating capacity is 20, appropriate for flexible VIP or corporate shuttle missions. Avionics are fitted with Gulfstream’s PlaneView™ suite, supporting long-range international operations and modern flight-deck integration. Based on ownership and registry, the aircraft is intended for commercial leasing and corporate operations out of Miami Beach, FL, performing transcontinental and intercontinental missions consistent with its 6,750 nm range and high-altitude capability. Standard maintenance considerations for this airframe type apply, with life-cycle economics reflected in the stated valuation.

The Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) occupies the long-range large-cabin segment, offering transoceanic capability, high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft service ceiling that suits high-altitude, fuel-efficient cruise profiles. Competing models in this niche include other large-cabin, long-range business jets; demand typically comes from corporate, charter and fractional operators seeking performance and range. For a 2004 serial like 5051, buyers and lessors weigh avionics fit (PlaneView™), engine time on Rolls-Royce BR710 C4-11 powerplants, and cabin reconfiguration potential when assessing maintenance cycles and resale value.
