Avionics are the factory-fitted Gulfstream PlaneView suite, supporting the aircraft’s long-range charter and corporate mission sets. Typical operations for this airframe would leverage its intercontinental range and high cruise speed for transoceanic and cross-continental executive or charter flights, with crew and maintenance planning shaped by the large-cabin amenities and two high-thrust turbofan engines. The registered owner’s location in Corona, California, implies a West Coast operational base, although specific operator scheduling and maintenance events are not published.

Competing models in this performance bracket include other long-range large-cabin types that appeal to corporate buyers and charter operators seeking transoceanic capability. From a market and maintenance standpoint, this airframe’s Rolls-Deutz BR700-series engines, PlaneView avionics, and 2014 manufacture date position it as a desirable late-model asset, while resale considerations will reflect total time, maintenance status, and the established valuation of $23,995,000.
