Gulfstream to display three aircraft at Avalon 2011

Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. will display three of its business jets at Avalon 2011, the Australian international airshow and exhibition held biennially in Geelong, Victoria.

Gulfstream will have both mid- and large-cabin jets on static display March 1-6 at Avalon Airport. These include the wide-cabin, high-speed Gulfstream G150; the large-cabin, long-range Gulfstream G450; and the large-cabin, ultra-long-range Gulfstream G550.

Several members of the company's sales team will participate in the six-day show, including Roger Sperry, regional senior vice president, International Sales, and Jason Akovenko, regional vice president, Asia-Pacific.

"Avalon 2011 represents an opportunity for us to demonstrate the capabilities of our mid-cabin aircraft and to confirm the far-reaching capabilities of our large-cabin aircraft," said Sperry. "The G150, for example, has steep approach certification from both the Federal Aviation Administration and the European Aviation Safety Agency, meaning it can land at and take off from a number of restricted airports, including London City. The G550 can fly from Avalon to Anchorage, and the G450 can easily take eight passengers from Avalon to Hong Kong. We want our customers to know we have a full range of aircraft and can right-size the aircraft to their particular requirements."
