N883LD

The airframe bearing tail number N883LD is a 2001-built Gulfstream G-IV SP, serial number 1441, manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace. The aircraft is owned by LARK AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Dallas, TX, US, and is registered in the United States. Registered as N883LD in U.S. civil registry, the airframe’s reported market valuation is $5,487,308, reflecting its age, configuration and representative avionics and connectivity fitment.

This specific G-IV SP is fitted in an executive cabin layout commonly configured for 12–13 passengers but capable of accommodating up to 22 seats; the representative forward-to-aft arrangement includes a forward four-place club, a mid-cabin three-place divan, a two-place club and an aft four-place conference group, with forward and aft lavatories, forward and aft closets and a full galley. Avionics and connectivity on this airframe reflect representative fitment: Honeywell SPZ-8400 IFCS as an option on later G-IVSPs, a Collins communications/DME suite, Airshow Genesys cabin displays and AirCell/Gogo Biz ATG-4000 cabin connectivity. Typical missions for this airframe leverage the 4,220 nm range and 459 kt cruise speed, supporting long-range business transport and transcontinental or transoceanic charters from its Dallas home base.

The Gulfstream G-IV SP airframe represented by N883LD occupies a long-range, large-cabin segment within fixed-wing, multi-engine executive aviation, combining high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft ceiling for efficient long-distance operations. With twin Rolls-Royce Tay 611-8 engines delivering 13,850 lbf each, the type appeals to operators seeking a balance of speed, range and cabin comfort. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2001 airframe include aging-system refurbishments and avionics modernization, factors directly influencing the reported value of $5,487,308 and typical buyer or charter demand for updated executive interiors and contemporary connectivity.
