N974SZ

This airframe, registered as N974SZ, is a 2016-built Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) with serial number 5545. The aircraft was manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation and is recorded in trust ownership under US BANK NA TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee based in Hartford, Connecticut, United States. The airframe carries a U.S. registration and is valued at approximately $26,000,000, reflecting its 2016 build standard long‑range outfitting and market positioning. Registry records indicate trustee ownership rather than an individual operator, which can reflect corporate, lease, or collateral arrangements.

The cabin for this specific G550 is described as an executive long‑range layout with typical high‑teens seating and a forward galley and belted aft lavatory; outfitting permits multiple living and conference zones depending on owner selection. Avionics are fitted with Gulfstream PlaneView, the manufacturer's integrated flightdeck suite standard on the GV‑SP platform. Typical missions for this airframe are long‑range executive transport or corporate shuttle duties, leveraging a maximum range of 6,750 nm and a cruise speed near 459 kts to support transcontinental and intercontinental sectors. Trustee ownership and corporate registration often imply centralized maintenance oversight and conservatively managed maintenance programs to preserve asset value.

The Gulfstream GV‑SP (G550) family occupies the long‑range large‑cabin business jet niche, notable for its combination of transoceanic range and high‑altitude performance, here exemplified by a 51,000 ft ceiling and Rolls‑Royce BR710 propulsion. Competing models include other long‑range large cabins from Bombardier and Dassault; buyer demand remains focused on proven range, reliability, and cabin flexibility. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2016 G550 such as N974SZ center on engine and avionics lifecycle (Rolls‑Royce BR710 and PlaneView), records continuity under trust ownership, and market valuation near $26,000,000.
