The Gulfstream G650ER platform represented by N988F occupies a long-range, large-cabin performance niche characterized in this airframe by a 7,500 nm range, high cruise speed, and 51,000 ft service ceiling. The combination of twin Rolls-Royce BR725 A1-12 engines and the PlaneView II flight deck underpins the type’s operational performance and systems commonality across executive-configured examples. Cabin configurability—multiple living zones and operator-determined seating up to the registry-listed 22 seats—drives demand among corporate operators seeking bespoke interiors and long‑range capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe would center on engine program status, avionics updates, and the condition of the bespoke executive interior as reflected in operator records.
