Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N930LS, is a 1973 Grumman Gulfstream II (G-1159 / Gulfstream G-II) carrying serial number 133. The jet is recorded as being owned by Wing Aviation and holds a United States registry (US). The history available for this specific airframe is limited to build and ownership identifiers; current ownership by Wing Aviation is the principal documented custodial detail. Condition and valuation details have not been published in the provided data.
Cabin configuration, seating capacity and avionics fit for this individual Gulfstream II are not published in the provided record; typical Gulfstream II installations historically accommodated executive layouts sized for transcontinental travel. Operationally, with a range of 3,583 nm and a cruise speed near 457 kts, this airframe is suited to long overland and moderate transoceanic missions typical of corporate and charter operations; the service ceiling of 43,000 ft supports high‑altitude route flexibility. The listed owner, Wing Aviation, is the documented operator/custodian in the registry information; no home base, operator-specific routes, or unique onboard amenities are published. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would reflect the twin‑Spey powerplant legacy—type‑specific inspections and support channels for the Rolls‑Royce Spey series—but specific maintenance status for N930LS is not supplied.
The Grumman Gulfstream II (G‑1159 / Gulfstream G‑II) occupies a mid‑size, long‑range executive jet niche introduced in the late 1960s and 1970s. With twin Rolls‑Royce Spey engines producing 11,400 lbf each, the model competes historically with contemporaries that emphasized range and cabin comfort over higher cruise speeds of later designs. Market demand for legacy G‑II airframes typically trends toward buyers or operators valuing rugged systems and spacious cabins, while resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine support, avionics modernization needs, and airframe fatigue life; specific resale valuation for this serial (133) is not published.
