Gulfstream Aerospace has delivered the 200th G600. This aircraft was outfitted at Gulfstream's facility in St. Louis and delivered to a North America-based customer.
To date, the G600 fleet has logged more than 197,000 flight hours and completed over 87,000 landings. The aircraft has amassed 95 city-pair speed records, including recently surpassing a record that had been held for more than a decade. For that achievement earlier this year on a flight from Aspen, Colorado, to the UK's London City airport, the G600 demonstrated impressive performance, completing the journey in seven hours, 42 minutes at an average speed of Mach 0.91.
“Interest in the G600 remains incredibly strong worldwide as customers continue to be impressed with its remarkable capabilities,” says Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream. “Reaching the 200th delivery reflects the programme's continued momentum while reinforcing the aircraft's proven maturity and reliability.”
The 200th G600 delivery follows other recent news for the aircraft. In January, Gulfstream announced that the G600 and its sister aircraft, the Gulfstream G500, received certification for steep-approach landing by EASA, allowing operations at even more airports worldwide, including London City.
Known for its award-winning interior and seat designs, the G600 can be configured with up to four living areas and can seat up to 19 passengers. It can fly 6,600 nm at Mach 0.85 or 5,600 nm at Mach 0.90 and features a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.925.
