N880WT

The airframe bearing tail number N880WT is a 2025-build Gulfstream G800, serial 88008, registered in the US and listed with an estimated value of $72,500,000. The aircraft is owned by QUALCOMM INC, a corporation based in Carlsbad, CA, US, and is recorded in corporate registry records as registered to QUALCOMM INC in Carlsbad, CA. As a new-production 2025 example of the Gulfstream long-range business jet, this specific airframe entered operation configured and certified in a nine-seat executive layout while retaining the factory optionability for higher-capacity or multi-zone interiors. No interim operators or lease changes are published beyond the corporate ownership and US registration.

This airframe is registered with a 9-seat executive layout for corporate transport but is factory-configurable up to 19 seats and may be fitted with 3–4 living areas, a forward galley and forward/aft lavatories to suit differing mission profiles. The flight deck is equipped with the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, supporting advanced integrated avionics, autothrottle and envelope-protection functionality appropriate for long-range, high-altitude operations. Typical missions for this aircraft under corporate ownership include transcontinental and intercontinental point-to-point travel requiring non-stop range performance; home-base operations and maintenance are expected to be coordinated from Carlsbad, California. Maintenance considerations follow Gulfstream’s new-aircraft support network and Rolls‑Royce Pearl 700 engine support agreements typical for factory-new G800 examples.

The Gulfstream G800 occupies the ultra-long-range, high-speed business jet niche within Gulfstream’s trijet-descended lineage, offering extended transoceanic reach and 51,000 ft operational ceiling for optimized fuel-burn cruise and weather avoidance. Competing models in the segment include other ultra-long-range offerings from Bombardier and Dassault, with buyer demand driven by corporations and high-net-worth owners seeking nonstop global connectivity. For a 2025-production airframe like 88008, resale and entry-into-service attractiveness are supported by factory-new systems, current warranty and OEM support, but long-term maintenance economics will reflect Pearl 700 engine program costs and modern avionics system updates when compared to later refresh cycles.
