Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N550PL, a 2008-built Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) bearing serial number 5218. The airframe is owned by TVPX ARS INC TRUSTEE, a corporation based in North Salt Lake, UT, US, and is registered in the US registry. Recorded valuation for this specific airframe stands at $15,000,000; maintenance and outfitting history beyond registry ownership is not published here. Ownership and registration are recorded under a corporate trustee in North Salt Lake, Utah.
The airframe carries a typical executive Gulfstream interior configured in a layout with three to four living areas and registry seating for 20; common outfittings range from 14–18 passengers and options include a forward or aft galley, two lavatories, and a crew rest option. Avionics are fitted with Gulfstream PlaneView (Honeywell-derived), providing the integrated flight deck features common to the GV-SP/G550 line. Typical mission profiles for this configuration include long-range intercontinental executive transport enabled by a maximum range of 6,750 nm and high-speed cruise around 459 kts, with operations routinely conducted to high-altitude flight levels up to 51,000 ft. The aircraft’s corporate trustee ownership suggests use in charter, fractional, or corporate flight departments with associated maintenance regimes commensurate with high-utilization executive jets.
As a member of the Gulfstream GV-SP/G550 family, airframe N550PL occupies the long-range, large-cabin business jet niche characterized by transoceanic capability and high-altitude performance. Competing models in the same market segment include contemporary large-cabin ultra-long-range business jets from other manufacturers; buyer and charter demand for well-equipped GV-SP airframes remains tied to cabin outfit, engine life, and avionics standardization such as the PlaneView suite. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2008 airframe center on engine hours/overhaul status and interior refurbishment relative to the noted registry seating and optional features.
