Gulfstream delivered the 200th G600 aircraft to a customer in North America earlier this week. The G600, which was certified for steep-approach landing in January by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), allowing operations at even more airports worldwide, including London City.
Other milestones for the G600 fleet include logging more than 197,000 flight hours and completing over 87,000 landings. Gulfstream also says the aircraft has amassed 95 city-pair speed records, including recently surpassing a record that had been held for more than a decade.
Mark Burns, President of Gulfstream, said: “Interest in the G600 remains incredibly strong worldwide as customers continue to be impressed with its remarkable capabilities. Reaching the 200th delivery reflects the program’s continued momentum while reinforcing the aircraft’s proven maturity and reliability.”
