Product Overview
The Gulfstream G600 is a sister aircraft to the G500, a smaller aircraft that was unveiled as a pair with the Gulfstream G600. Along with the Gulfstream G650ER, Gulfstream G650 and the Gulfstream G500, the G600 shares a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.925. A low cabin altitude at the aircraft’s maximum altitude of 51,000 feet and 100 percent fresh air replenished every two minutes reduce the effects of jet lag. The G600 comes equipped with Gulfstream’s Enhanced Vision System, the Intelligence-by-Wire flight system provides highly calibrated flight controls, and auto throttles and autobrakes ensure peak engine performance and smoother, safer landings.
As of November 2022, 3% of the Gulfstream G600 aircraft were purchased pre-owned by their current owners, the other 97% new. 2.2% are for sale with half of those (50%) under an exclusive broker agreement. When for sale the average time on the market is 240 days.
