N789LR

This entry documents airframe N789LR, a Gulfstream Aerospace GV-SP (G500) built in 2006 with manufacturer serial number 5100. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by CHAMPION RENT A CAR INC, a corporation based in Miami, FL, US; this ownership listing is a notable registry detail that ties the jet to a commercial rental/charter operator. The aircraft carries a market valuation of $12,495,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit, and GV-SP performance pedigree. Maintenance and valuation records for this specific tail have been reported in relation to its corporate ownership and US registration.

The cabin of N789LR is reported in an 18 pax forward galley configuration with executive club seating, a divan, and an aft stateroom featuring a berthable divan, supporting mixed passenger/corporate charter missions and overnight transcontinental or intercontinental sectors. Avionics fit is reported as Honeywell Epic PlaneView™ (Cert Foxtrot Enhanced), a modern integrated flight deck that supports advanced navigation and operational efficiency on long-range missions. Operated from its owner’s base in Miami, FL, typical mission profiles for this airframe would include high-speed, long-range charters up to the listed 5,620 nm range and operations to flight levels approaching the 51,000 ft ceiling. Cabin configuration and passenger capacity indicate versatility for both high-density charter and premium executive transport, with maintenance considerations driven by the BR700 engine series and advanced avionics suite.

The Gulfstream GV-SP (marketed often in the G500/GV-SP niche) competes in the long-range midsize to large-cabin segment, offering transcontinental range and high cruise speed such as the 488 kts cited for this airframe. Competing types include other long-range business jets equipped with similar thrust-class turbofan engines; the presence of Rolls-Royce BR700-710C4-11 powerplants and PlaneView avionics can positively influence buyer and charter demand. Resale and maintenance considerations for N789LR center on engine time, avionics certification status, and cabin refurbishments consistent with its reported 18-pax executive layout, all factors that feed into the stated $12,495,000 valuation.
