N527GD

This entry covers airframe N527GD, a Gulfstream G500 (GVII-G500) with serial number 72227 currently registered to GULFSTREAM AEROSPACE CORP of Savannah, GA, US. The aircraft is listed on the U.S. registry (US) and is owned by a corporate manufacturer entity based in Savannah, serving as both owner and operator location in the available records. Manufacturer/dealer registration is noted for the cabin configuration, and there are no separate operator transfers or publicized registration actions beyond the corporate ownership in the supplied data. The airframe is a fixed-wing, multi-engine business jet valued at $48,500,000, reflecting a factory-level executive fit and modern systems for its class.

The aircraft is outfitted per the manufacturer listing with a 9-seat VIP executive layout, noted in the registration as manufacturer/dealer registration, indicating a factory or dealer-configured interior rather than a bespoke aftermarket completion. Avionics are the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, supporting advanced flight management, enhanced situational awareness and pilot interface common to the type. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 5,300 nm range and long-range cruise capability, include transcontinental and intercontinental business missions operated from the owner’s base in Savannah, GA. Maintenance considerations align with manufacturer support pathways from Gulfstream and OEM engine support for the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW814GA powerplants.

The Gulfstream G500 (GVII-G500) occupies the long-range, high‑speed business-jet niche with transcontinental capability and a high‑altitude service ceiling of 51,000 ft, pairing speed and comfort for executive transport. Competing models address similar missions, and demand from corporate owners and charter operators favors aircraft with factory VIP interiors and modern flight decks such as the Gulfstream Symmetry. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial and configuration are influenced by OEM ownership, factory registration status, and the cost profile implied by the stated market value.
