Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N55LC, is a Gulfstream GVII-G500 (G500) completed in 2021 with manufacturer serial number 72088. It is owned by Lowes Companies Inc, a corporate owner based in Mooresville, NC, and appears on the U.S. civil registry under a corporate registration. The airframe carries twin PW800-series turbofans and has a nine-seat FAA registry entry; no alternate operators or interim ownership transfers are recorded in the supplied data. Maintenance and registry status align with a current U.S. operator profile and corporate use centered on North Carolina.
The FAA registry lists 9 seats for this specific aircraft, while typical G500 executive interiors can range from eight to sixteen seats with forward and/or aft galley options; this airframe is therefore configured at the lower end of that executive spectrum. The flight deck is equipped with the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck™, supporting advanced avionics and flight-management capabilities suitable for high-performance corporate missions. With a long-range capability of 5,300 nm and a high operating ceiling of 51,000 ft, this G500 is suited to transcontinental and transoceanic corporate operations from its corporate base in Mooresville, NC. Corporate ownership suggests a mission mix of executive transport and company travel with typical maintenance cycles managed under manufacturer-recommended programs.
The Gulfstream GVII-G500 family occupies the super-midsize/midsize to large-cabin sector, offering high speed and long-range capability of 488 kts cruise and 5,300 nm range that place it against competitors in the long-range corporate jet market. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW814GA engines deliver substantial thrust for fast-climb and high-altitude performance up to 51,000 ft, appealing to buyers requiring efficient, long-haul point-to-point travel. For owners and operators, the G500’s advanced avionics and modern systems generally support robust resale and charter demand, though maintenance and lifecycle costs reflect the level of technology and performance in this class.
