Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N65EQ, is a Gulfstream G650ER built by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation in 2016 with serial number 6227. The aircraft is recorded as owned by ASTRA ALPHA 650 LLC and carries a United States registration (US); details on operator and home base are not published. The registry entry identifies a 22-seat configuration and the platform is fitted with Gulfstream avionics, with a reported current market value of $42,000,000. No public record of prior owners or notable registry actions beyond the current ownership listing is provided in the supplied data.
The airframe is fitted with a 22-seat executive layout as listed on the registration; the registry notes that operator fit may vary, so the in-service interior could differ from the registered configuration. Avionics are reported as Gulfstream PlaneView II, supporting modern flight-deck capability consistent with long-range executive operations. With a transoceanic range of 7,500 nm and a cruise speed of 488 kts, typical missions for this specific G650ER would include intercontinental business travel, high-end charter services, or corporate transport between major global hubs, though the operator and base are not specified. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the G650ER class: twin BR725 turbofan support, high-altitude systems for a 51,000 ft ceiling, and the typical heavy-aircraft inspections aligned with its 2016 build year and serial 6227.
The Gulfstream G650ER family occupies the ultra-long-range, large-cabin business jet niche, offering extended-range performance for non-stop intercontinental missions. Competing types include other ultra-long-range bizjets from manufacturers such as Bombardier and Dassault, but the G650ER is distinguished by its combination of speed, altitude capability, and cabin size. From a buyer and charter demand perspective, aircraft like this retain strong appeal for global operators seeking direct long-range routes; resale and maintenance considerations center on engine support for the Rolls-Royce BR725 A1-12 powerplants and the condition of the executive cabin as installed by the operator.
