N989KM

This airframe, registered as N989KM, is a 2009-built Gulfstream GIV‑X (G450) with manufacturer serial number 4183. The airframe is recorded as owned by DOUBLE X LLC / ARRIVEDERCI LLC, an LLC based in Palo Alto, CA, US, reflecting a corporate ownership structure typical of U.S.-registered business jets. The certificate is held on the U.S. registry under registration N989KM, and valuation records list the airframe at $12,156,667, indicating a mid-life market appraisal consistent with its year and configuration. Notable registry activity includes the documented ownership listing under the dual-LLC name, and there are no additional publicized incidents or unusual condition remarks in the supplied data.

The interior of N989KM is configured to Gulfstream typical standards for the G450, with a cabin described as a typical 12–16 executive layout while retaining a maximum certified seating of 22; forward and/or aft galley options are noted in the supplied configuration data. Avionics aboard are consistent with Gulfstream PlaneView II or Honeywell Primus Epic family fits, with the typical G450 fit available, supporting modern flight-deck capabilities and integrated systems for long‑range business missions. The aircraft’s 4,350 nm range and 459 kt cruise speed position it for transcontinental U.S. missions and mid‑ocean hops; based on the owner location in Palo Alto, CA, typical operations would include cross‑country executive transport and corporate shuttle services on the U.S. West Coast to national and international business centers. Maintenance considerations follow G450 program norms for Rolls‑Royce Tay engines and Gulfstream airframe schedules, particularly as the airframe progresses through mid-life heavy checks.

The Gulfstream GIV‑X (G450) family occupies the large-cabin, long‑range business jet niche, offering high cruise speed, transcontinental range and a widely recognized corporate cabin standard. Competing models in the segment include other large-cabin Gulfstreams and long‑range offerings from Bombardier and Dassault; the G450’s combination of Rolls‑Royce Tay powerplants and proven avionics keeps demand steady in owner‑operator and charter markets. Resale and maintenance considerations emphasize completed maintenance records, engine shop visit history for the Tay Mk 611‑8C units, and the avionics pedigree (PlaneView II / Honeywell Primus Epic), all factors that influence residual value around the documented $12,156,667 appraisal.
