N899YF

This entry describes US-registered airframe N899YF, a Gulfstream-built long-range business jet delivered in 2015 with manufacturer serial number 6127. The type is a Gulfstream G650 (G‑VI) manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation and is recorded in the registry as owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE (a corporate trustee located in Salt Lake City, UT, US). The aircraft is configured and maintained as an executive large‑cabin transport and is valued at approximately $60,000,000 on current market estimates. Ownership is held by the corporate trustee based in Salt Lake City, and the registry lists a maximum seating capability that exceeds typical outfitting figures.

The airframe is fitted with an executive large‑cabin layout and the registry lists a maximum of 22 seats while typical outfitting is documented at 14–18 passengers for comfort and mission flexibility. Avionics are the factory-installed PlaneView II (Gulfstream) suite, supporting advanced flight management, envelope protection and long-range operational capability. Typical mission profiles for this configuration include transcontinental and intercontinental point-to-point corporate flights leveraging the 7,000 nm range and high cruise speed of 488 kts to reduce stage stops. Maintenance and operational considerations for this specific airframe follow Gulfstream and Rolls‑Royce recommended schedules for the G650 and BR725 powerplants, with corporate trustee ownership indicating centralized asset management and custodial oversight.

The Gulfstream G650 (G‑VI) occupies the ultra-long-range, large‑cabin segment, offering one of the highest cruise speeds and one of the longest ranges available in purpose-built business jets, including a service ceiling of 51,000 ft. Competitors in this performance niche include other large-cabin long-range types; buyer and charter demand centers on operators seeking intercontinental nonstop capability and cabin comfort for executive transport. From a resale and maintenance perspective, the combination of the BR725 powerplants and PlaneView II avionics contributes to sustained market desirability, while the airframe age (built 2015) and recorded valuation of $60,000,000 are factors considered by buyers and lessors assessing lifecycle costs and residual value.
