N83FF

This entry covers airframe N83FF, a 2006-build Gulfstream G200 with serial number 0153. The airframe was originally produced by Gulfstream Aerospace based on the Israel Aircraft Industries design lineage and is currently owned by the Los Angeles–based corporation MENDEZ & SANCHEZ PC. The aircraft is U.S.-registered and operated from a corporate base in Los Angeles, California. Valuation records list the airframe at $4,800,000, reflecting market position for mid‑size jets of its vintage and configuration.

The cabin of N83FF is fitted with a forward galley and a 10‑passenger conference/group layout, configured for corporate transport and small-group missions. Avionics are a Collins Pro Line 4 suite including Dual FMS 6100, Iridium Axxess II, and SATCOM as listed, supporting international communications and modern flight management capabilities. Typical operations for this airframe include medium- to long-range point-to-point corporate travel—missions leveraging the 3,400 nm range and a cruise speed near 459 kts—often from its Los Angeles operator base. Maintenance considerations reflect the twin PW306A engines and Pro Line 4 avionics common to the model, with periodic systems updates and engine shop visits consistent with mid‑2000s Gulfstream G200 service practices.

The Gulfstream G200 family occupies a mid‑size business jet niche with transcontinental capability, competing with models that offer similar range and cabin comfort. The G200’s combination of a 45,000 ft ceiling, efficient twin PW306A engines, and Pro Line avionics supports corporate and charter demand for reliable, long‑range missions. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2006 airframe like N83FF include avionics upgrade potential, engine life‑limit planning, and market sensitivity to mid‑size jet values, reflected in the listed price of $4,800,000.
