N827GA

This airframe, registered as N827GA, is a 1999-built Gulfstream G-IV (G-IV/SP) with manufacturer serial number 1391. The airframe is owned by PPG INDUSTRIES INC, a corporation based in West Mifflin, PA, US, and retains U.S. registration. The airframe’s genesis as a 1999 delivery places it within the late-production run of the G‑IV family and its corporate ownership suggests use in executive transport and corporate flight departments. No public record of other operators or major registry actions is provided in the available data.

The aircraft is certificated for 22 seats, with an executive layout that varies by interior refit, indicating that the installed cabin configuration may differ from the certificated maximum; detailed cabin furnishings or avionics fit are not published in the provided data. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 4,220 nm range and 459 kt cruise, would include transcontinental and intercontinental corporate travel operated from its owner’s base in West Mifflin, PA, US. As a corporate-registered Gulfstream G‑IV, maintenance considerations would follow manufacturer and Rolls‑Royce engine program schedules for the TAY 611SER engines, with operator-specific upkeep aligned to corporate flight department standards.

The Gulfstream G-IV (G‑IV/SP) occupies a long-range large-cabin niche among late 1990s business jets, offering high cruise speeds and transcontinental capability up to 4,220 nm and flight levels to 45,000 ft. Competing models in the same era included other large-cabin, long-range business jets that appeal to corporate buyers seeking 20+ seat certificated interiors and long endurances. For a 1999 airframe such as N827GA, buyer and charter demand typically hinge on cabin refurbishment history and engine program status for the Rolls‑Royce TAY 611 engines, both key factors in maintenance planning and resale considerations.
