N820HB

The airframe bearing registration N820HB is a 1999-built Gulfstream Aerospace G-V, serial number 570, currently owned by HOWARD & BRETT LLC (a corporation based in New York, NY, US). The aircraft is US-registered and appears in charter and broker listings with a valuation around $9,800,000, reflecting its late‑1990s manufacture and outfitting. Operational records and public listings indicate it is operated from the owner’s New York, NY base and has seen avionics and FMS upgrades reported in broker material. Ownership by HOWARD & BRETT LLC is the principal recorded corporate ownership noted for this airframe.

The cabin is described in charter listings as a typical executive configuration for the Gulfstream G‑V with a forward galley, cabin seating configured for 12–14 passengers in an executive layout, and an aft lavatory, although the registry lists up to 20 seats for this airframe. Avionics fit reported in broker material includes Honeywell SPZ‑8500 EFIS components, triple Honeywell CDUs, LASEREF III inertial reference and WAAS/LPV-capable CDUs and FMS upgrades, indicating avionics modernization for precision navigation. Typical mission profiles for this specific aircraft align with long-range executive transport from New York, leveraging its transcontinental and intercontinental range capability. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect common G‑V items: BR710 engine support and periodic avionics and FMS software/hardware validations associated with the avionics upgrades noted.

The Gulfstream G‑V family occupies the long‑range, large‑cabin business jet niche, offering transoceanic capability reflected in this airframe’s 6,500 nm range and high cruise speed. Competing models in the same era and mission set include other late‑1990s large-cabin types with similar range and speed; resale prices for G‑V examples vary widely with completion condition and avionics fit, and this airframe’s reported avionics upgrades support marketability. Buyers and charter operators typically value the G‑V for speed and range, while maintenance and parts for BR710 engines and avionics lifecycle upgrades are primary lifecycle cost drivers for aircraft of this vintage.
