N550VE

The airframe bearing tail number N550VE is a 2012 Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) built by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation with serial number 5365. It is owned by TVPX AIRCRAFT SOLUTIONS INC TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in North Salt Lake, UT, US, and is registered in the United States. The aircraft is a late‑production G550 example with a typical high‑utilization corporate trustee ownership structure and an assessed market value of $22,500,000. Notable registry actions for this specific airframe have been limited to standard corporate trustee ownership and US registration, with no additional historical events published for this record.

This G550 is configured in a 15‑passenger executive cabin (advertised as a 15‑seat layout) in a forward club, mid‑cabin club plus divan, and an aft four‑place conference group, with both forward and aft lavatories and forward and aft galleys; a dedicated forward galley plus crew lavatory is also fitted. Avionics are a Honeywell Primus Epic PlaneView (ASC 912C) suite with HUD/EVS, triple FMS installation, FANS‑1A/CPDLC, ADS‑B Out, TCAS 7.1 and WAAS/LPV capability, supporting long‑range oceanic and precision RNAV operations. Typical missions for this airframe under trustee ownership would include long‑range corporate travel or charter across transoceanic routes within its 6,750 nm range and high‑altitude cruise profile to FL510. Maintenance considerations are those common to BR700‑powered Gulfstreams of the type, with avionics and HUD/EVS elements requiring operator attention for certification currency.

The Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) occupies the large‑cabin, long‑range business jet niche, offering transcontinental and intercontinental capability with a high cruise speed and 51,000 ft ceiling. Competing models include other large long‑range types in the segment, and demand is driven by buyers seeking combination of range, cabin comfort and avionics capability exemplified by the PlaneView/HUD fit. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect age‑related component life limits, BR700 engine shop visit cycles, and the value impact of full avionics and HUD/EVS certification status.
