Gulfstream Delivers 50th G700 One Year After Entry Into Service
Gulfstream Aerospace has delivered its 50th G700, marking a key milestone one year after the ultra-long-range business jet entered service in April 2024. All deliveries have been completed at the company’s headquarters in Savannah, Georgia. The G700 fleet has already accumulated over 11,700 flight hours since its entry into service.
The G700 offers the most spacious cabin in its class, with a volume of 2,603 cubic feet. It supports up to five living areas and can be configured with features such as an ultra-galley or a grand suite with a fixed bed and shower. At cruising altitude FL410, the cabin altitude is just 2,840 feet—the lowest in business aviation.
Optional amenities include high-speed internet and ultra-high-definition circadian lighting. The aircraft offers a maximum range of 7,750 nautical miles at Mach 0.85 or 6,650 nautical miles at Mach 0.90. With a top speed of Mach 0.935, the G700 has already set more than 80 city-pair speed records, demonstrating its global capability.
The jet is powered by two Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines, each generating 18,250 pounds of thrust. The flight deck features Gulfstream’s Symmetry Flight Deck with Honeywell touchscreen avionics and BAE’s fly-by-wire system with Active Sidesticks.
“Demand for the G700 continues to grow, and this aircraft is exceeding customer expectations with each new delivery,” said Gulfstream President Mark Burns. “Reaching 50 deliveries highlights the strength of our production, design, and the value it brings to customers worldwide.”
