Dubai-based Empire Aviation Group (EAG) has added a third factory-new Gulfstream G650 to its managed fleet. The G650 was acquired by EAG for an existing owner upgrading a previous aircraft. The large cabin, Rolls-Royce powered business jet has a cruise speed of Mach 0.85 and a range of 7,000 nm with eight passengers and four crew. It can be configured for up to 18 passengers.

Executive director Paras Dhamecha says: “We have a great deal of experience in managing and operating the G650 for owners, based on our current two aircraft. The G650 is a very impressive business jet and it is no surprise that some existing aircraft owners are looking to upgrade to this very long-range and comfortable type.”
