N710BG

This entry covers Gulfstream G280 serial 2036, delivered in 2013 and operated under U.S. registration N710BG. The airframe is owned by Contrail Aviation LLC, a limited liability company based in Philadelphia, PA, US, which appears as the recorded owner in public records and listings. Registry listings and public data indicate the type and configuration for this specific aircraft, and valuation estimates place this airframe at approximately $11,000,000. The aircraft’s documented condition and equipment, including its avionics and cabin density, inform current operator usage and market positioning.

This G280 is typically outfitted with a higher-density passenger layout for the model line, with public records and listings showing this specific airframe configured to carry 9–12 passengers and reflecting a forward galley, multiple club seating groups, and an aft lavatory. The installed avionics suite is Gulfstream’s PlaneView280 with optional EFVS / Synthetic Vision and autothrottle capability, supporting precision routing and operational flexibility on mixed long-range and regional missions. Based on operator location in Philadelphia, PA, US, typical missions would include transcontinental U.S. flights and short to medium international hops within the aircraft’s 3,600 nm range, leveraging its cruise speed of 459 kts and service ceiling of 45,000 ft. Maintenance and amenity considerations for this airframe reflect the higher-density interior and the selected avionics options.

The Gulfstream G280 occupies a mid-to-super-midsize business jet niche, delivering a balance of transcontinental range and relatively high cruise speed for its class. Competing models in this performance bracket typically offer similar ranges and seating capacities; buyer and charter demand tends to focus on operators needing 8–12 passenger capacity with corporate or charter flexibility. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its 2013 build year, serial 2036, the Honeywell HTF7250G engines, and the inclusion of PlaneView280 avionics with EFVS/Synthetic Vision and autothrottle, all factors that affect lifecycle operating costs and market valuation.
