Gulfstream marks 100th delivery of next-generation aircraft

Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. announced it has made the 100th customer delivery of the next-generation Gulfstream G500 and Gulfstream G600 programme. The 100th aircraft is a G500. The G500 entered service in September 2018, with the G600 following in August 2019. Before the aircraft entered service, Gulfstream ensured the G500 and G600’s maturity with exercises that went beyond the rigorous flight-test programme, including a high-speed G500 world tour spanning nearly 130,000 nautical miles and achieving 22 city-pair speed records.
