The Gulfstream G650, equipped with wings optimized for seamless airflow and powered by two 16,900 lbs. high-thrust Rolls-Royce BR725 AI-12 engines, stands as a pinnacle of aviation engineering. Offering unparalleled range and velocity, this aircraft is a beacon of time efficiency. With its capability to fly at 92% of the speed of sound, global destinations like Tokyo and New York become an hour closer, and circumnavigating the globe with just one stop is within reach with a properly augmented crew. From London to Hong Kong or Atlanta to Geneva, the Gulfstream G650 ensures that the world's key destinations are comfortably accessible. Featuring a Dual Auto-throttle system for precise control of its massive Rolls-Royce powered engines, the Gulfstream G650 guarantees a smooth and controlled flight experience. Its Predictive Landing Performance System assists the crew in evaluating runway requirements under all weather conditions, enhancing safety and operational efficiency. FAA certification for steep approaches enables access to airports like Aspen/Pitkin Airport further expanding its operational flexibility. As an ultra-long-range jet, the Gulfstream G650 boasts three cabin zones and a (weather variable) range of 7,000 nautical miles. Since it came into production in 2012, approximately 500 G650 aircraft have been produced, marking it as a cornerstone in Gulfstream's aviation legacy. Despite the advent of the G700, the G650 remains a revolutionary aircraft, recognized with the prestigious 2014 Collier Trophy for its technological advancements in performance, cabin comfort, and safety. With a cabin designed for comfort and luxury, the Gulfstream G650 offers unparalleled spaciousness and functionality. Its signature large windows allow ample natural light, and the seats can be converted into beds for up to seven passengers, ensuring a comfortable journey. It also developed advanced sound suppression techniques to improve the cabin experience and keeping engine noise outside the aircraft cabin. The cabin has sixteen large windows to maximize natural light, and its low cabin altitude ensures that passengers arrive refreshed and alert. In the cockpit, the G650 features state-of-the-art fly-by-wire controls and was the second business aircraft to use the fly-by-wire system, with no mechanical control between pilot and flight surfaces, enhancing pilot control and responsiveness. This system incorporates a quadruple-redundant flight control computer system for commanding all flight-control surfaces. The Gulfstream G650 has a separate and dedicated back-up flight control computer that can provide an additional level of safety. The PlaneView II integrated flight deck, based on Honeywell Primus Epic avionics, offers advanced features such as synthetic vision and enhanced vision systems, ensuring optimal situational awareness for the crew. Passengers onboard can control their environment through the Gulfstream Cabin Experience and Gulfstream Cabin Control app, while Wi-Fi connectivity and a spacious private entertainment area provide a luxurious travel experience. With its blend of performance, comfort, and safety, the Gulfstream G650 continues to set the standard for modern business aviation. As of Q2 2024, the list price of the Gulfstrem G650 is $33,300,000.
