N803GD

This airframe, registered as N803GD, is a factory-built Gulfstream GVIII-G800 (G800) completed in 2024 with serial number 88003. The airframe is owned and operated by GULFSTREAM AEROSPACE CORP, based in Savannah, GA, US, and remains on the manufacturer’s registry under a U.S. registration (US). As a manufacturer-owned demonstrator/operator example retained by Gulfstream Aerospace Corp., the aircraft’s condition and valuation reflect direct factory support and new-build status, with an assessed market value of $72,500,000.

The registry lists a factory VIP option interior for N803GD, showing a nine‑seat executive layout while the G800 platform supports up to four living areas or alternative configurations accommodating up to 19 seats. The fit for this airframe is recorded as a nine‑seat executive cabin, intended for long-range corporate transport and VIP missions consistent with Gulfstream’s factory executive options. Avionics aboard this aircraft are the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, providing the integrated systems and automated flight capabilities associated with the G800 family. Based in Savannah under manufacturer ownership, typical operations for this specific aircraft likely include ferry flights, demonstration flights, executive transport, and company test or delivery missions; factory ownership also implies centralized maintenance and support directly from Gulfstream’s facilities.

The Gulfstream GVIII-G800 (G800) occupies the ultra-long-range, high‑speed business-jet segment, offering transcontinental and intercontinental missions supported by a published range of 8,200 nm and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft. Powered by twin Rolls‑Royce Pearl 700 engines, the type competes with other ultra-long-range jets in its class and commands strong demand among buyers seeking factory-backed support and modern avionics like the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck. For a manufacturer-owned, new-build example such as N803GD, resale and maintenance considerations are influenced by factory provenance, low airframe hours, and direct Gulfstream maintenance history, factors that tend to preserve value in the secondary market.
