Gulfstream's ultra-long-range G700 will make its Singapore Airshow debut later this month. The large business jet will be on static display alongside a G600 at the biennial airshow, which runs from February 20 to 25 at Changi Exhibition Centre.
“The long-range advantage of the Gulfstream G700 and G600 is incredibly important to customers in the Asia-Pacific region,” said Gulfstream senior v-p of worldwide sales Scott Neal. “We look forward to showcasing these record-setting aircraft at the Singapore Airshow so customers can experience firsthand their unmatched performance, innovative design, and exceptional comfort.”
According to the company, the G700 is the fastest in the Gulfstream fleet and can link Singapore to London at Mach 0.87. It seats up to 19 passengers and sleeps up to 13.
This news comes after parent company General Dynamics said the FAA’s delay in the certifying of the aircraft cost the company $1 billion in revenues and $250 million in earnings last year at its aerospace division. The company had initially planned for 15 deliveries of the G700 in December 2023. It now expects FAA certification and service entry by the end of next month, with 50 G700 deliveries planned by year-end.
