GULFSTREAM V
Aircraft Summary
The Gulfstream V and derivatives are a family of twin-jet aircraft, mainly for private or business use. The aircraft is capable of transporting up to 16 passengers.
History and Features
In the early 1990s, the Gulfstream V (GV) was developed as a response to the Bombardier Global Express. It was certified on April 11, 1997. Capable of flying up to 6,500 nmi (12,000 km), it rolled out in 1995 and was Gulfstream’s first ultra-long range business jet. Total production of the Gulfstream V was 193 aircraft.
Compared to the Gulfstream IV, the engines are changed from Rolls-Royce Tay to Rolls-Royce BR700-710A1-10 with increased thrust, higher bypass ratio, and Full Authority Digital Engine Controls (FADEC). Operating ceiling is increased from 45,000 ft to 51,000 ft.
The three zone cabin is similar to the G-IV, smaller than the Global Express, while its dispatch reliability, cabin noise and fuel efficiency compare favourably against its competitors of the same era. Compared to the comparably priced Global Express, the GV offers more range and is more fuel efficient while the Bombardier offers better runway performance, a larger cabin and a softer ride.
Aircraft of similar role, configuration and era are: Airbus Corporate Jets, Boeing Business Jet, Bombardier Global Express, Dassault Falcon 7X.
