N848JA

This entry covers the specific Gulfstream GV‑SP airframe bearing tail number N848JA, built in 2004 with manufacturer serial 5047 by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation. The aircraft is recorded on the US registry and is registered to corporate owner D S ADVISORS INC, located in Oak Park, IL, US, which serves as the primary operator/home base in available records. There are no publicly noted incidents or ownership transfers beyond the documented corporate registration; valuation and condition assessments are not published in the supplied data. The airframe type is the Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) variant configured for large‑cabin executive use and appears maintained to corporate standards indicated by its equipped avionics and engine specification.

The airframe is listed with a configurable large‑cabin executive layout, with typical factory and market executive arrangements of 13–19 passengers though the registry entry for this specific airplane lists 20 seats. Avionics are provided as PlaneView (Honeywell Primus Epic), supporting advanced flight management, integrated displays and modern crew situational awareness appropriate for long‑range business missions. With a transcontinental and intercontinental range of 6,750 nm and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft, the aircraft is mission‑suited for nonstop transoceanic travel, premium corporate transport and long‑range charter tasks from its Oak Park, Illinois base. Maintenance considerations align with BR710 engine program requirements and Gulfstream line‑maintenance and component support networks.

The Gulfstream GV‑SP/G550 family occupies a high‑end large‑cabin long‑range business jet niche, combining intercontinental range with transonic cruise speeds around 488 kts and high‑altitude capability to optimize route flexibility. Competing platforms in this class include contemporary large‑cabin models from Bombardier and Dassault; demand is driven by corporate owners and charter operators seeking range, cabin comfort and mature avionics suites like PlaneView. For this specific airframe, resale and maintenance considerations center on BR710 engine program status, avionics currency, logbook completeness and the impact of a 2004 build year on component life‑limitation and refurbishment cycles.
