N578GA

This entry covers Gulfstream airframe N578GA, serial number 72178, a Gulfstream GVII-G500 (G500) owned by Gulfstream Aerospace Corp of Savannah, GA, US. The airframe is recorded on the U.S. civil registry and is registered in the US under corporate ownership rather than an individual or third-party operator. No separate operator or change-of-ownership events are recorded in the supplied data; Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation remains the listed owner and custodian of this specific airframe. The aircraft carries a listed market valuation of $42,500,000, reflecting factory configuration and contemporary market positioning for new-production G500 examples.

This airframe is fitted with a 9-seat executive layout in a dealer-configurable interior; the G500 platform supports up to three living areas or up to 19 seats in alternate configurations, but this specific serial is outfitted for nine passengers. The flight deck is equipped with the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, standard on the GVII family, supporting advanced flight-management, enhanced-situational-awareness and automated flight-envelope protections relevant to corporate transport missions. Typical mission profiles for a G500 of this configuration include transcontinental and long-overwater executive travel within the aircraft’s 5,300 nm range and high-speed cruise capability. As a corporation-owned demonstrator or fleet asset based to Savannah, GA, US, maintenance is expected to follow OEM programs administered by Gulfstream service facilities.

The Gulfstream GVII-G500 family occupies the high-performance large-cabin business jet segment, offering high cruise speed and long-range capability relative to earlier generation Gulfstream models. Equipped with twin Pratt & Whitney PW814GA engines and the Symmetry Flight Deck, the G500 competes with other long-range large-cabin types in buyer and charter demand driven by speed, range, and advanced avionics. Resale and maintenance considerations center on factory-backed support, certification status, and cumulative utilization; the stated valuation of $42,500,000 aligns with contemporary pricing for similarly equipped, corporate-owned GVII-series airframes.
