Unconventional, above and beyond all definition

Outside, exceptional speed and performance. Inside, relaxed atmosphere and comfort. The ‘routes’ of new business aviation cross the world’s skies

From down on the ground, to up in the sky. In flight. Our notion of what is considered modern is rapidly changing. This was clear for all to see at ABACE 2019 (Asian Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition), held at Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, the ideal hub between Asia, advancing China and the rest of the world for exploring all the magmatic potential of business aviation, and the ideal stage, therefore, for Gulfstream which, with 335 aircraft already in service in the Asian-Pacific area (12% of the world fleet), focused on the G650ER flagship, with a range of 7,500 nautical miles/13,890 km and long-range cruising speed of Mach 0.85 and 6,400 nm at Mach 0.90. Super performance: from New York to Shanghai in 13 hours and 40 minutes or Singapore to San Francisco in 13 hours and 37 minutes.

Known for its ability to connect far-flung cities at the fastest speeds, the G650ER offers passengers both style

and comfort with the signature Gulfstream Cabin Experience.

The 6,450 nm / 12,000 km Falcon 8X can connect Beijing with New York, Hong Kong with London and Shanghai with Los Angeles nonstop, yet land at difficult-to-access airfields such as London City Airport and Aspen that are off limits to most other long-range business jets.
