Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N551FR, is a 2004-built Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) with serial number 5040. The aircraft is owned by the corporation ONEFLIGHT INTERNATIONAL INC, based in Englewood, CO, US, and appears on U.S. civil registers. The airframe's broker-style listings and registry entries identify it as an executive-configured long-range Gulfstream operated from a U.S. base. No public record of multiple ownership transfers or significant incident history is supplied in the provided data.
The subject G550 is listed with an executive cabin layout accommodating up to 18-seat capacity in a four-zone configuration, comprising a forward galley, multiple club/conference zones, and forward plus aft lavatories as reported in broker material. Avionics fit is described as Honeywell / PlaneView-class, with listings specifically noting the PlaneView suite typical of later Gulfstream avionics retrofits or factory options. Typical missions for this airframe type and fitted range include transcontinental and transoceanic executive transport at high cruise speed and altitude—here enabled by a 6,750 nm range and 488 kt cruise at a 51,000 ft ceiling. Operator maintenance considerations for this serial include routine heavy checks and engine support for the BR700 series to preserve long-range reliability in corporate service.
The Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) occupies the large-cabin, ultra-long-range business jet niche, competing with models such as late-model Bombardier Globals and Dassault Falcons in transoceanic executive roles. Its combination of a high cruise speed, 51,000 ft service ceiling, and long-range capability makes it attractive to corporate owners and charter operators seeking intercontinental flexibility. Market and resale considerations for this particular airframe hinge on avionics configuration (PlaneView-class installations), interior condition of the 18-seat four-zone cabin, and BR700 engine maintenance history—each factor that materially affects demand among buyers and high-end charter operators.
