N901G

This entry covers airframe N901G, a Gulfstream GIV‑X (G450) built in 2009 with manufacturer's serial number 4163. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by OWENS ILLINOIS GENERAL INC, a corporation based in Swanton, OH, US; this corporate ownership is the principal recorded operator/home base association. The aircraft is a factory GIV‑X (G450) example produced by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation and reflects a late‑production integration of the G450 line’s systems and performance; its assessed market value is $14,995,000. No other registry actions or ownership transfers are published in the supplied data.

The cabin on airframe N901G conforms to the typical executive configuration for the GIV‑X, with a standard 12–16 passenger executive layout while retaining certified capacity for up to 22 seats; forward and aft galley and lavatory options are noted as available. Typical avionics fit is from the Honeywell Primus Epic / PlaneView family, a common retrofit or factory option for G450s that supports advanced flight management, situational awareness, and integrated systems monitoring. Operational use for this corporate‑owned example is consistent with long‑range business transport and executive mission profiles, taking advantage of the aircraft’s transcontinental/intercontinental range and cruise speed; routine utilization patterns would prioritize corporate travel from a base in or near Swanton, OH. Maintenance considerations for this individual airframe align with the G450’s support requirements for twin‑engine Rolls‑Royce TAY installations and Honeywell avionics modular support programs.

The Gulfstream GIV‑X (G450) family occupies a mid‑large cabin, long‑range business jet niche, offering performance suited for nonstop transcontinental and many transoceanic missions with a maximum certified ceiling of 45,000 ft and a long mission range of 4,350 nm. Competing models typically include late‑generation large‑cabin offerings from Bombardier and Dassault in similar range and cabin classes; market demand is driven by corporate and fractional operators seeking robust range, cabin comfort, and mature avionics suites. For resale and maintenance, G450s like N901G are evaluated for airframe hours, engine cycles on Rolls‑Royce TAY 611‑8C powerplants, and the presence of Honeywell Primus Epic/PlaneView avionics, which can materially affect marketability and retained value in the pre‑owned corporate jet market.
