Gulfstream G280 Introduction
Produced by the company that is well known for creating luxurious and high performance business jets, the Gulfstream G280 was created in evolution of the predecessor Gulfstream G200, while taking every element of the previous aircraft to the next level.
FlyRoving charters the Gulfstream G280 for clients who want large-cabin capability in a more efficient super-midsize package.
Key Points: Why Charter the Gulfstream G280?
- Boasts an incredible 3,600 nautical mile range, which allows coast-to-coast missions or transatlantic flight.
- Comfortable seats 8–10 passengers with a stand-up flat-floor cabin.
- Faster climb, higher cruise, and longer range than the G200.
- 15% fuel savings compared to earlier-generation super-midsize jets.
Gulfstream G280 Development & Background
The Gulfstream G200 was a proven successor, but there was critique in the fuel efficiency and the short-field performance. Knowing that Gulfstream already made a huge investment by purchasing Galaxy Aerospace (original founder of the G200), they realized they can capitalize on creating a new super-midsize jet with noticeable upgrades. After IAI built the airframe, and Gulfstream Aerospace finished the final assembly in Savannah Georgia, the Gulfstream G280 entered service in 2012, executives and charter operations noticed the G280 can fly faster and farther than the G200 while burning less fuel.
Gulfstream engineers added many key improvements from the G200. The new wing design optimized aerodynamics, which reduced drag and fuel burn. The new T-tail structure provided greater stability and control. Cabin pressurization was improved to a mere 7,000ft cabin altitude at 45,000 ft cruise.
For executives who need to charter a private jet from Dubai to Beijing or Vancouver to Cabo San Lucas, the Gulfstream G280 is a solid choice.
