N789TN

This airframe, registered as N789TN, is a Gulfstream IV-SP (G-IV SP) built in 1994 with serial number 1240. The aircraft is listed to an owner shown as Registration Pending (individual - Santa Monica, CA), an individual based in Santa Monica, CA, US, and is recorded on the US registry. Registration Pending status is the most notable administrative action in the recorded ownership timeline, indicating recent or pending registration activity for this airframe. As a 1994-built long-range business jet, its age and equipment complement typical market expectations for early G-IV-SP examples; specific valuation or condition reports for this tail are not published in the provided data.

The cabin for this airframe is described as a typical executive layout configured for 12–13 passengers in charter use while being certificated for up to 22 seats, allowing flexibility between executive transport and higher-density passenger operations. The installed avionics conform to an EFIS glass cockpit, with the Honeywell SPZ-series being typical for the G-IV family and likely fitted on this ship. From its Santa Monica, California ownership base, typical missions enabled by the aircraft’s 3,800 nm range and 460 kt cruise speed include transcontinental and long overwater flights within the continental United States and to nearby international destinations. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on the two Rolls-Royce Tay 611SER turbofan engines and aging airframe systems consistent with a 1994 build year.

The airframe belongs to the Gulfstream IV-SP line produced by Gulfstream Aerospace, representing the G-IV family’s long-range, high-speed business jet niche with a service ceiling of 45,000 ft. Its performance figures—cruise at 460 kt and 3,800 nm range—place it in the long-range cabin-class category for corporate and charter operators, balancing speed and distance. Being a 1994 serial 1240 example, buyer and charter demand typically reflects considerations of age, avionics modernization (EFIS/Honeywell SPZ-series), and engine maintenance history on the Rolls-Royce Tay 611SER powerplants when assessing resale and operational cost profiles.
