N884CF

This entry covers the specific Gulfstream airframe bearing registration N884CF, a Gulfstream G‑IV (G‑IV SP) built in 2001 with manufacturer's serial number 1435. The airframe is owned by CABANA AIR LLC, an LLC based in Frederick, MD, US, and operates on the U.S. registry. The aircraft carries a market valuation of $5,800,000 in current data and is certificated and equipped consistent with late-model G‑IV configurations; no alternate owners or transfers are recorded in the supplied dataset. Operational condition highlights reflect a typical executive configuration and a standard avionics fit for the type, with no special incident history provided.

The cabin for N884CF follows a typical executive layout designed for approximately 14 passengers, featuring a forward galley and options for forward and aft lavatories while being certificated for up to 22 passengers. Avionics installations conform to the common G‑IV fit of Collins Pro Line 4, acknowledging that specific equipment variations can occur between individual airframes. Typical mission profiles for this airframe would include long‑range business and private executive transport within its 4,200 nm range and high‑speed cruise capability of 459 kts, operating from the owner/operator base in Frederick, MD and regional U.S. hubs. Maintenance considerations follow the G‑IV program norms for twin‑engine Rolls‑Royce TAY powered airframes, with attention to engine shop visits and avionics upgrades as common lifecycle events.

The Gulfstream G‑IV (G‑IV SP) occupies a performance niche as a long‑range, high‑speed large cabin business jet compared with contemporaries from Bombardier and Dassault. With a service ceiling of 45,000 ft and intercontinental range near 4,200 nm, demand in the pre‑owned market is typically driven by charter operators and corporate buyers seeking mature large‑cabin capability at lower acquisition cost. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect age‑related avionics and interior upgrade cycles, as well as the economic impact of engine maintenance on lifecycle value for TAY‑powered G‑IVs.
