The FAA last month awarded type certification to the Gulfstream 350, an upgraded version of the previously manufactured G300. Compared with the G300, the new model has a roomier cabin, cockpit and baggage area and the PlaneView flight deck, which is based on Honeywell Primus Epic avionics. The G350 offers a maximum range of 3,800 nm, 200 nm more than that of the G300. The midrange G350 is similar in terms of size and amenities to its sister ship, the long-range G450, which can fly 500 nm farther. The $27.5 million G350 is expected to enter service next summer.
