Gulfstream G550
The G550 was introduced in 2003 and over 600 units have been produced & delivered across the globe. The G550 is produced by Gulfstream at their headquarters in Savannah, Georgia and is based off the Gulfstream V platform. The original Gulfstream V was produced in the 1990’s in response to the Bombardier Global Express. Gulfstream’s have always been able to maintain their image as a pop-culture icon.
Relax
Designed to be the quietest in business aviation, the G550 cabin provides a peaceful environment.
Overview
The G550 is powered by two Rolls-Royce BR710 engines mounted to the rear of the fuselage. Each BR710 produces 15,385 lb of thrust (30,770 lb total), which means the G550 can take-off in just 5,910 feet and can land in just 2,770 feet. The engines are able to push the G550 to a maximum altitude of 51,000 feet and a maximum cruise speed of 488 knots. With a Max Take-Off Weight (MTOW) of 91,000 lbs, the G550 has a range of 6,750 nautical miles, allowing it to hop from Europe to the Americas, Africa and most of Asia without issue.
Design
The G550 is efficient with its use of space with a total cabin length of 15.27 metres (50 ft 1 in), width of 2.13 metres (7 ft) and a cabin height of 1.83 metres (6 ft), totalling a cabin volume of 47.26 cubic metres (1,669 cubic feet). With all this space the G550 is able to carry up to 19 passengers (dependent upon the configuration) and sleep up to eight passengers. One of the most notable features with all Gulfstream’s are the large, oval shaped windows. These windows are larger than the competition and the G550 features 14 Gulfstream Signature Oval Windows throughout the cabin, making the cabin feel even larger and help boost wellness through the abundance of natural light.
Top-end Avionics
The G550 requires two pilots to operate the aircraft which is standard within this category of aircraft. The G550 features Gulfstream’s PlaneView avionics system which was developed in conjunction with Honeywell. When the G550 was released it pioneered several performance capabilities and flight deck innovations. The PlaneView system is no exception and is an entirely glass flight deck.
