N701CR

This airframe, registered as N701CR, is a Gulfstream-built business jet of the Gulfstream G280 model, manufactured in 2018 with manufacturer serial number 2168. Ownership records list the aircraft as belonging to CMR II LLC (an LLC based in Chicago, IL, US), and it operates on a US registration. Notable registry actions include the assignment of the US registration N701CR to this serial, and the airframe is recorded with an estimated market valuation of $17,750,000. The airframe’s documented configuration and operator listings indicate it is maintained and marketed in an executive layout consistent with its age and equipment fit.

The cabin on this specific G280 is described in operator listings as a nine-passenger executive configuration, consistent with the model’s typical layout of eight to ten passengers; many operator sources show a 9‑passenger arrangement for this serial. Avionics are equipped with Gulfstream’s integrated suite PlaneView280, supporting modern flight-management and situational-awareness capabilities common to the G280 fleet. Typical missions for this airframe profile include transcontinental and near-international business travel within its 3,600 nm range at a cruise of about 460 kts, operating from owners and charter operators based from the Chicago, IL area. Maintenance considerations reflect standard twin-engine HTF7250G program requirements and the service support infrastructure available to US-registered Gulfstream aircraft.

The Gulfstream G280 occupies a mid-to-large super-midsize business-jet niche, offering high cruise speed and a near-45,000 ft service ceiling that supports efficient point-to-point corporate operations. Competing platforms in its class include other super-midsize jets offering similar range and seating; buyer and charter demand for well-equipped late-model airframes remains healthy, reflected in valuation data such as the $17,750,000 figure for this 2018 example. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on avionics fit like PlaneView280 and the HTF7250G engine maintenance status, both key factors for lifecycle support and marketability of this serial.
