GULFSTREAM: SEAMLESS ENTRY INTO SERVICE FOR THE G700

Gulfstream’s G700 has already surpassed 100 days certified, demonstrating the aircraft manufacturer’s program excellence and maturity.

The all-new Gulfstream received Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) type certification on March 29 and subsequently entered into service. Additional certifications, steadily increasing flight hours and deliveries around the world along were combined with continued city-pair speed records, linking Paris to Montreal in 6 hours and 16 minutes and São Paulo to White Plains, New York, in 8 hours and 46 minutes, both at an average speed of Mach 0.90 or greater.

Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream, concludes: “We planned for a seamless entry into service for the G700, and this incredible start is a testament to both the maturity of the program and the dedication of the Gulfstream team. Thanks to the investments we made across our business, from research and development to manufacturing and completions, the G700 program is exceeding customer expectations – they are flying their aircraft around the world immediately upon delivery, and the feedback we are hearing is outstanding.”
