Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N970BG, is a 1998-built Gulfstream G-V with serial number 562 manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace. Ownership is recorded to the corporation PROFESSIONAL BUILDING SYSTEMS INC, based in Middleburg, PA, US, which appears as the long-term operator and home base for the type. Registration and ownership are recorded in the United States, and the airframe is valued at $18,000,000 in provided records. The machine's condition and valuation reflect its high-end long-range capability within the late-1990s production cohort of Gulfstream's large-cabin business jets.

Configured with seating for 20, this specific Gulfstream G-V airframe supports high-capacity executive transport or corporate shuttle roles consistent with its operator's corporate profile. Cabin layout details and specific interior appointments for this registration are not published in the supplied data, but the seating count indicates a denser executive or corporate-comfort configuration rather than a sparse VIP layout. Typical missions for this G-V, given its 6,500 nm range and 488 kt cruise, would include transcontinental and transoceanic non-stop flights from the operator's base in Middleburg, Pennsylvania to long-haul business destinations. Avionics fit and recent modification history are not published in the provided dataset; maintenance considerations align with BR710-family engine support and mature airframe service programs for late-1990s Gulfstream large-cabin jets.

The Gulfstream G-V family occupies a high-performance, long-range business jet niche, offering transoceanic reach and high cruise speeds for executive transport; this airframe's 6,500 nm range and 51,000 ft ceiling typify that capability. Competitors in the same market era include other ultra-long-range business jets offering similar cabin size and performance; buyer and charter demand typically values airframes with comprehensive maintenance records and updated avionics. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 1998 G-V center on BR710-series engine support, completion condition, and remaining calendar/flight-cycle limits—all factors implicit in the stated $18,000,000 valuation.
