Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N888YG, is a 2003-built Gulfstream G-IV (G400) with serial number 1519. The aircraft is registered in the United States and currently held by GY GULFSTREAM LLC, an LLC based in Las Vegas, NV, US; registration records indicate the airframe is operated from that operator/home base. The FAA record lists the airframe in a certificated 22-seat configuration and values the type on this record at $3,000,000, reflecting its market position and condition as indicated by registry data. No public FAA record details the specific interior layout beyond the 22-seat registration.
The aircraft is registered as a 22-seat configuration; the specific interior layout is not publicly detailed in the FAA record. Avionics are reported as Collins Pro Line 4 as a typical fit for many G‑IV/G400 airframes, though retrofit packages and exact avionics fit can vary by individual airframe and owner modifications. Typical mission profiles for this configuration include long-range transcontinental and transoceanic executive transport at high cruise speeds near 500 kts and flight levels up to 45,000 ft, leveraging the twin Rolls‑Royce TAY 611SER engines for performance. As an LLC-owned large-cabin business jet, operational considerations include standard heavy-jet maintenance cycles, engine shop visits for the TAY series, and potential avionics retrofit history that can affect dispatch reliability and resale appraisal.
The Gulfstream G‑IV (G400) family occupies the large-cabin, long-range business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental capability with a typical range near 3,880 nm. Competing models in its era include later-model large-cabin business jets from Bombardier and earlier Gulfstream variants; buyer and charter demand tends to focus on range, cabin capacity, and avionics modernization. For this specific airframe, factors such as recorded 22-seat certification, the presence of TAY engines, and provenance under GY GULFSTREAM LLC influence maintenance planning and resale considerations, with documented registry value noted at $3,000,000.
