Pegasus Elite Aviation has expanded its charter fleet with the addition of a Gulfstream GIV-SP, strengthening its long-range capability and taking its managed fleet to 11 aircraft.

Based at LA’s Van Nuys airport, the aircraft is available for worldwide charter operations and marks the company's second managed aircraft addition this year. Pegasus says the latest addition supports its growing long-range charter capability and expands its offering for corporate executives and private clients.

The performance-enhanced GIV-SP offers a maximum cruise speed of approximately 585mph and a range of around 5,000 miles, supporting transcontinental and selected transoceanic missions. It also features increased payload capability, upgraded braking systems and an advanced flight management system designed to optimise routing and fuel efficiency.

The 13-passenger cabin includes leather club seating, a fully equipped galley, private lavatory, complimentary high-speed wi-fi, satellite communications and individual entertainment screens. Select seats convert into sleeping berths for longer flights, while the aircraft underwent a full exterior repaint and comprehensive interior refurbishment in 2024.

With the addition of the GIV-SP, Pegasus’s fleet comprises three G650s, a G550, a Global 5000, two GVs and four GIV-series aircraft, enabling the operator to support missions ranging from short-haul executive travel to long-range international charters.
