N945XC

This article describes the individual airframe bearing Federal registration N945XC, a Gulfstream G-IV with manufacturer serial number 1019. The build year is Not published; the airframe is recorded in US civil registration as owned by STRATTON VENTURES LLC, an LLC based in Dover, DE, US, and no prior ownership timeline is publicly detailed. Notable registry actions such as changes of operator, liens, or major incident reports are Not published. The aircraft is assessed at an estimated value of $3,000,000, reflecting its standing as a later-production large-cabin business jet with mature systems and airframe hours consistent with its market tier.

The individual N945XC operates as a fixed-wing, multi-engine business jet configured for long-range corporate transport missions from its owner’s location in Dover, DE, US. Specifics of this airframe’s cabin layout and seating count are Not published; typical G-IV interiors accommodate multiple living zones, conference or divan seating, and extended galley and baggage capacity suited to transcontinental and transoceanic flights within the aircraft’s 4,216 nm range. Avionics fit for this serial is Not published, though G-IV airframes commonly carry integrated flight decks appropriate for high-altitude, long-range cruise operations up to 45,000 ft at approximately 445 kts. Maintenance considerations for this tail focus on engine shop visits for the twin Rolls-Royce Tay 611-8 powerplants and airframe lifecycle events commensurate with its reported market valuation of $3,000,000.

The Gulfstream G-IV family occupies a performance niche as a large-cabin, long-range corporate jet, offering intercontinental capability with high cruise speed and altitude capacity. Competing models include late-model large-cabin types from Bombardier and Dassault in similar mission roles. Buyer and charter demand for individual older G-IV airframes is driven by condition, avionics modernization, and engine shop status; at an assessed value of $3,000,000, resale and maintenance considerations typically prioritize detailed maintenance records, any STC avionics upgrades, and the remaining safe-life on consumable components such as the Rolls-Royce Tay 611-8 engines.
