Model & Market Context
This airframe carries the U.S. registration and tail number N581D and is a build-year 2011 Gulfstream GV-SP (marketed as the G550) with serial number 5353. The aircraft is owned by WILMINGTON TRUST CO TRUSTEE, a corporation based in Wilmington, DE, US, which is the recorded legal owner and trustee on the U.S. registry. No public record of other operators or major registry transfers is provided in the supplied data. Not published valuation and condition details limit public assessment of the airframe’s market appraisal, though the listed owner and corporate trustee status indicate operation under an institutional ownership structure.
The specific cabin configuration for this airframe is not detailed beyond its seating capacity of 20, which suggests a high-density executive or corporate layout adaptable for long-range business travel. The aircraft is equipped with the manufacturer-standard Gulfstream PlaneView integrated avionics suite, supporting advanced flight operations and long-range mission profiles. Typical missions for this configuration and equipment package would include transcontinental and intercontinental flights within the GV-SP/G550 performance envelope, leveraging the 6,750 nm range and long-range cruise capability. Maintenance and operational oversight appear likely to be managed under corporate trust ownership, with no additional maintenance history published in the supplied data.
The Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) occupies a long-range ultra‑long-range business jet niche, offering high-speed cruise and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft, competitive with peer types. Competing models in the same class include late-model Bombardier and Dassault long-range business jets; demand from buyers and charter operators typically centers on range, cabin size, and avionics suites like Gulfstream PlaneView. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2011 GV-SP will generally reflect engine time on the Rolls‑Royce BR710 C4-11 powerplants and overall completions and refurbishment status, which are not published for this specific serial.
