N890DA

This entry covers the specific Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) airframe registered as N890DA, built in 2005 with serial number 5079. The airframe is recorded as owned by CITE AVIATION LLC, a corporation based in Wilmington, DE, US, representing its primary known custodial history. Public registry and valuation data list the airframe value at $14,950,000, and there are no additional published records here of prior ownership transfers, operator changes, or base relocations. Registered in the United States and held by a corporate owner, the aircraft’s documented status reflects a corporate asset rather than a continuously disclosed charter or airline operator assignment.

The airframe is fitted in an executive configuration consistent with Gulfstream practice, listed as an executive layout with a typical 14–20 passenger executive arrangement and a forward galley and crew area; the specific cabin of N890DA is operator-dependent within that range. Avionics are recorded as Gulfstream PlaneView, supporting advanced flight management and situational awareness typical of the G550/GV-SP family. Mission profiles for this registration would align with long-range corporate transport—transcontinental or transoceanic flights within the aircraft’s 6,750 nm range and cruise of 488 kts—operating to and from business hubs consistent with corporate ownership. Maintenance considerations reflect the twin Rolls-Royce BR710 engine type and executive interior upkeep; no unique retrofit or refurbishment history is published here.

The airframe belongs to the Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) family, which occupies the long-range, large-cabin corporate jet niche, blending transoceanic range and high cruise speed with a 51,000 ft service ceiling. Competing models in this performance bracket include other ultra-long-range business jets offering similar range and cabin comfort; buyers and charter operators typically prize the G550 for its avionics suite and range. For this serial and year, market and resale considerations center on engine program status (Rolls-Royce BR710 series), interior condition within the 14–20 passenger layout band, and the documented valuation of $14,950,000 as a snapshot of asset worth.
