N523GA

This article covers airframe N523GA, a Gulfstream GVII-G500 (G500) with manufacturer serial 72223. The aircraft is owned by GULFSTREAM AEROSPACE CORP, a corporate owner based in Savannah, GA, US, and carries U.S. registration. Operated and retained by its manufacturer-owner rather than a third-party operator, the airframe typically reflects manufacturer configuration and maintenance standards. The listed market valuation for this individual aircraft is $38,000,000, and its condition is consistent with a factory-delivered executive configuration and manufacturer stewardship.

Airframe N523GA is configured with the manufacturer's registered cabin layout: a 9-seat executive layout intended for long-range corporate transport. It is equipped with the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, integrating modern avionics for high‑automation flight operations and enhanced crew situational awareness. Typical missions for this airframe under manufacturer ownership would include corporate demonstration flights, customer inspections, ferry legs, and executive transport between major hubs consistent with its 5,301 nm range and high cruise speed. Based at the owner’s Savannah, Georgia facilities, the aircraft benefits from factory-level maintenance resources, parts supply and logkeeping practices specific to Gulfstream-managed assets.

The Gulfstream GVII-G500 (G500) occupies the large-cabin, long-range business jet market niche, offering transcontinental and intercontinental capability with cruise speeds near 488 kts and a maximum operating altitude of 51,000 ft. Competing models in its class include offerings from other OEMs that balance cabin comfort, speed and range for nine-to-fourteen seat configurations. For a manufacturer-owned airframe such as N523GA, resale considerations favor strong maintenance provenance and a clear factory log history, while market demand emphasizes late-model avionics (Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck), mission flexibility and demonstrable low-time operated status.
