N989LR

The airframe bearing registration N989LR is a Gulfstream Aerospace GV-SP (G550) built in 2009 with manufacturer serial number 5257. The aircraft is recorded as owned by 5257 LLC (The Breeden Company), an LLC based in Virginia Beach / Norfolk, VA, US, which has been listed as the primary owner and operator/home base for this airframe. The installation and configuration trace to Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation production lines, and registry entries reflect its United States registration status US. No other notable registry actions or transfers are recorded in the provided dataset.

The cabin of N989LR is configured for 18 seats, consistent with long-range business or group transport roles; specific interior layout details are not published in the supplied data. Avionics are identified as Gulfstream PlaneView, which supports advanced flight-deck automation and situational awareness suited to extended overwater and high-altitude operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 6,750 nm range and high service ceiling of 51,000 ft, include transcontinental and intercontinental non-stop trips and corporate group transport operating from the owner's Virginia Beach / Norfolk, VA base. Maintenance considerations for this individual G550 would center on twin Rolls-Royce BR710 C4-11 engine support and Gulfstream avionics service schedules as part of the operator’s continuing airworthiness management.

The Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) family occupies a long-range large-cabin niche, offering intercontinental range and high-speed cruise capability exemplified by N989LR’s 488 kt cruise and 6,750 nm range. Competitors in this performance segment typically include other long-range business jets; buyers and charter customers value the G550 for range, cabin capacity and mature avionics suites such as Gulfstream PlaneView. For resale and maintenance, considerations specific to this airframe include lifecycle support for the BR710 C4-11 engines and documentation tied to the 2009 build and single-owner LLC status.
