N721K

This entry covers airframe N721K, a factory-new Gulfstream GVIII-G700 completed in 2025 with manufacturer's serial 87042. The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded on the registry with an executive 9‑seat cabin configuration; manufacturer documentation indicates the type is configurable up to 19 seats and up to 5 living areas. Valuation records list the airframe at $81,000,000, and it is categorized as a fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft. The airframe's build characteristics and registry entries emphasize an in-service, entry-into-service status for a late-model ultra-long-range business jet.

The airframe carries an executive 9‑seat layout recorded on registry, while manufacturer layouts support reconfiguration to larger-capacity or multi-zone interiors with up to 5 living areas, enabling varied mission profiles from long-range point-to-point executive transport to high-density charter when reconfigured. Avionics are fitted with the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, supporting advanced automation, envelope protection and situational awareness typical of this class. With a maximum range of 7,750 nm and high-altitude capability to 51,000 ft, typical operations for this airframe will include transoceanic routings and intercontinental non-stop sectors from U.S. bases. Maintenance considerations follow factory support for the type and the two Rolls‑Royce Pearl 700 powerplants, whose specific thrust rating of 18,250 lbf each defines performance and support needs.

The Gulfstream GVIII-G700 occupies the ultra-long-range, high-speed large-cabin niche, offering transcontinental and intercontinental capability competitive with other flag‑ship business jets. With a factory-year 2025 build and valuation of $81,000,000, resale and charter demand for late-model examples is typically strong among corporate buyers and charter operators seeking maximum range and cabin flexibility. Maintenance and resale considerations center on powerplant support for the Rolls‑Royce Pearl 700 engines and retained value associated with modern avionics suites such as the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck.
