N718GA

This airframe, registered as N718GA, is a Gulfstream GVIII-G700 with manufacturer serial number 87118 and United States registration. The build year is not published in the provided data. Ownership is held by GULFSTREAM AEROSPACE CORP, a corporation based in Savannah, GA, US, and the aircraft appears in company hands consistent with a manufacturer or corporate demo role; the manufacturer/demo fit is listed as nine seats. Registry actions beyond registration in the US are not published. The listed valuation for this specific airframe is $79,000,000, reflecting a new-build or demonstrator-condition pricing tier rather than an aged, used-market appraisal.

The cabin for this particular GVIII-G700 is noted in manufacturer/demo configuration as 9 seats; Gulfstream customer configurations for the G700 platform can support up to five living areas and up to 19 seats across multiple floorplans, though this airframe is completed in the demo layout. Avionics are fitted with the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, incorporating active control sidesticks, dual HUDs, and combined vision/system features which support demanding business-aviation mission profiles. Typical operations for a manufacturer-owned or demonstrator G700 include transcontinental and intercontinental routing enabled by the 7,750 nm range, customer demonstration flights, certification verification sorties, and ferry flights based from the owner’s Savannah, Georgia facilities. Maintenance considerations align with manufacturer support for a Pearl 700–equipped fleet and ongoing serviceability expected from a factory-owned demonstrator.

The Gulfstream GVIII-G700 occupies an ultra-long-range, large-cabin business-jet niche characterized by transoceanic capability and high cruise altitudes to optimize range and time efficiencies, demonstrated here by the 51,000 ft ceiling and 7,750 nm range. Competing models in the segment include other ultra-long-range large-cabin types that target head-of-state and ultra-high-net-worth clients; buyer and charter demand often focuses on cabin flexibility (up to 19 seats and five living areas in customer layouts) and advanced avionics such as the Symmetry Flight Deck. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect manufacturer ownership, a demonstrator configuration, and operation with Rolls‑Royce Pearl 700 powerplants, factors that generally support a strong service history and retained value in the secondary market.
