N550TB

This entry documents airframe N550TB, a Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) built by Gulfstream Aerospace in 2006 with serial number 5107. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by HILLTOP ASSET HOLDINGS LLC, a corporation based in Saratoga Springs, NY, US; this ownership and registration form the primary public registry points for the airframe. The airframe’s documented configuration and avionics fit indicate a standard executive long‑range business jet in active corporate ownership, and the assessed value on record is $20,590,625.

The airframe is finished in an executive layout with a total cabin length of approximately 50 ft, and a typical outfitting to accommodate 14–20 passengers depending on interior choices; the registered seating capacity is 20. Avionics are specified as Gulfstream PlaneView, supporting modern flightdeck integration and long‑range operational capability. Typical missions for this configuration include transcontinental and intercontinental corporate transport leveraging the 6,750 nm range and high cruise speed of 488 kts, operating from the owner’s base in Saratoga Springs, NY, US for point‑to‑point executive travel. Maintenance considerations align with the GV‑SP/G550 fleet norms, including attention to BR700/BR710 series engine support and Gulfstream avionics software and hardware lifecycle.

The Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) sits in the long‑range business jet niche, offering high cruise speed, a 51,000 ft service ceiling, and intercontinental range suited to owner‑operators and charter customers requiring non‑stop capability. Competing models in this performance class include other large‑cabin, long‑range types; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect factory systems such as the Gulfstream PlaneView cockpit and the Rolls‑Royce BR700/BR710 engine family support. The recorded value of $20,590,625 positions this 2006‑built aircraft within the used long‑range market where provenance, interior condition, and maintenance history drive buyer and charter demand.
