Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N869SC, is a 1994 Gulfstream G‑IV (G‑IV SP) built as serial number 1236 by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation. The aircraft is owned by PERENNIAL INVESTMENTS INC, a corporate owner based in Anaheim, CA, US, and carries US registration. Recorded valuation for this specific airframe is $2,186,572, reflecting its late‑production G‑IV vintage and installed systems condition. No public record of multiple operators is provided; the listed corporate ownership and registry indicate use in corporate transport or charter support from a California home base.

This G‑IV is certificated for 22 seats while listings report a typical executive cabin configured for 14–16 place layouts, indicating a common corporate executive interior modification for comfort over maximum seating. Avionics are representative of Honeywell/Collins‑era G‑IV fitments with Honeywell SPZ‑series reported as common, and reported installed items include Aircell Axxess II and Collins 462 ADF, supporting basic connectivity and navigation needs for its missions. The aircraft’s long‑range capability (over 4,000 nm) and cruise speed near 459 kts make it suitable for transcontinental and transoceanic corporate missions under the operator’s base in Anaheim, with maintenance considerations typical for mid‑1990s Rolls‑Royce Tay engines and avionics refreshes.

The Gulfstream G‑IV family occupies the large‑cabin, long‑range corporate jet niche, offering transcontinental performance and a high‑altitude ceiling of 45,000 ft. Contemporary competitors include late‑model Dassault Falcon 2000 series and Bombardier Challenger variants; market demand for late‑1990s G‑IVs tends toward corporate buyers and charter operators seeking lower acquisition cost versus newer types. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe center on the health of the Tay 611 engines, avionics modernization (given Honeywell/Collins‑era systems), and the cabin refurbishments associated with a certificated 22‑seat platform typically reconfigured to executive layouts.
