N888FB

The airframe bearing registration N888FB is a Gulfstream GVI (G650) built in 2014, serial number 6085, manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. It is owned by FB AIRCRAFT LEASING LLC, an LLC based in Aventura, FL, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe’s recorded history is relatively straightforward with ownership retained by the leasing company; registry entries note operator-configurable seating and occasional reconfigurations reflected in FAA/tracking records. Valuation assessments list the airframe at approximately $32,621,959, consistent with late-model G650 examples in active executive service.

This specific G650 carries a typical executive cabin layout with an operator-configurable interior; the platform commonly is outfitted with 13–19 seats but FAA and tracking entries for this airframe list up to 22 seats. Avionics are fitted with Gulfstream PlaneView II / Vision Flight Deck, providing the flight crew with integrated displays, advanced flight management and enhanced situational awareness suitable for long-range international operations. Typical missions for this airframe under lease operation include transcontinental and transoceanic executive transport within its 7,000 nm range, operating from its home base near Aventura, FL, US and servicing both owner-charter and corporate lessee schedules. Maintenance considerations follow Gulfstream heavy-check intervals for the G650 family and the Rolls‑Royce BR700 series engines, with the leasing operator managing configuration changes and tracking to maintain residual value.

The Gulfstream GVI (G650) occupies the ultra-long-range, high-speed business jet niche, offering a 51,000 ft service ceiling and near 500-knot cruise speeds that appeal to high-end corporate and charter markets. Primary competitors include other ultra-long-range bizjets offering transoceanic capability; buyer and charter demand tends to favor later-production G650s for their cabin size, speed and avionics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its 2014 manufacture date, engine TBO and the impact of operator-configurable cabin changes on market valuation, which here is recorded at $32,621,959.
