N629U

This airframe, registered as N629U, is a Gulfstream GVII-G500 built in 2025 with serial number 72168. The aircraft is owned by SOUTH VALLEY AVIATION LLC, a corporation based in Philadelphia, PA, US, and carries a United States registration. Built and delivered in 2025, the airframe entered service with its corporate owner and has no publicly recorded prior operators. Notable registry actions include its initial U.S. registration and valuation assessment placing the aircraft at $45,000,000, reflecting a new-production GVII-G500 in corporate configuration and current market conditions.

The cabin of N629U is configured in an executive layout shown to accommodate up to 13 passengers across as many as three living areas and can be fitted with a forward or aft galley; the GVII-G500 platform also offers a maximum seating option of up to 19 seats. The aircraft is equipped with the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck™, supporting advanced avionics and systems integration for crew situational awareness and reduced pilot workload. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include long-range intercontinental corporate travel enabled by a 5,300 nm range and high-altitude cruising to 51,000 ft, operating from the owner's base in Philadelphia, PA, US for both owner-flown and charter roles depending on corporate policy. Maintenance considerations for this specific ship follow factory-new GVII-G500 schedules, with PW814GA engine support and Gulfstream airframe support network obligations applicable to a 2025-built aircraft.

The Gulfstream GVII-G500 family occupies the long-range large-cabin business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability combined with high-speed climb and modern cabin amenities. Competing models include late-generation large-cabin offerings from Bombardier and Dassault, with buyer demand favoring newer airframes for fuel efficiency, avionics sophistication, and interior flexibility. For a 2025 serial like 72168, resale and maintenance considerations emphasize manufacturer warranty status, engine program enrollment for the Pratt & Whitney PW814GA engines, and retention of the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck™ as a strong asset for secondary-market valuation.
