N82CW

The airframe bearing tail number N82CW is a 2018 Gulfstream G280, serial number 2163, manufactured by IAI Ltd / Gulfstream Aerospace. The aircraft is owned by COSTCO WHOLESALE CORP (a corporation based in Issaquah, WA, US) and is registered in the US. The registry shows a 21-place executive/corporate seating configuration and lists the airframe value at $17,500,000; no other ownership transfers or registry alterations are published in the supplied data.

This specific Gulfstream G280 is registered with a 21-place executive/corporate seating arrangement as shown in the registry, indicating a high-density corporate interior for either large-cabin corporate transport or high-capacity executive shuttle duties. The aircraft is fitted with Gulfstream PlaneView280 avionics, supporting modern flight-deck automation and systems integration typical of the G280 line. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 3,600 nm range and 459 kts cruise, would include transcontinental U.S. runs and medium-range international hops from its owner’s base in Issaquah, WA; operational ceiling capability to 45,000 ft supports efficient high-altitude cruise. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow Gulfstream and Honeywell engine program recommendations for the HONEYWELL AS907-2-1G pair and adhere to corporate operator standards for a 2018-model business jet.

The Gulfstream G280 occupies a super-midsize business jet niche delivering long-range, high-speed point-to-point capability. With a 3,600 nm range and a cruise of 459 kts, the type competes with other super-midsize-cabin offerings in buyer and charter markets where cabin capacity and transcontinental capability are priorities. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2018 airframe reflect its relatively recent manufacture year and factory avionics fit (PlaneView280), factors that support continued demand; the listed value of $17,500,000 positions it competitively against newer and older airframes depending on configuration and maintenance history.
