Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. today announced it will exhibit two of its next-generation business aircraft at the Bahrain International Airshow on November 13-15: the ultralarge-cabin Gulfstream G700 and the clean-sheet Gulfstream G500.
“Gulfstream continues to see strong demand in the Middle East and interest in our next-generation fleet
remains high,” said Scott Neal, senior vice president, Worldwide Sales, Gulfstream. “The G700 and G500
each provide a combination of advanced technology, cabin comfort and performance capabilities that
continue to resonate with operators in the region. We are excited for our customers and guests to
experience The Gulfstream Difference firsthand at the Bahrain International Airshow.”
Since entering service in April, the G700 has continued to showcase unparalleled maturity with type
certificate validations in nine nations in addition to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and European
Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) type certifications, along with increased flight hours and deliveries
around the world. The aircraft features the industry’s most spacious cabin and can be configured with up
to five living areas, seat up to 19 passengers and sleep up to 13. Equipped with Rolls-Royce Pearl 700
engines, the G700 delivers ultralong range and speed, flying 7,750 nautical miles/14,353 kilometers at
Mach 0.85 or 6,650 nm/12,316 km at Mach 0.90. With a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.935, the
G700 is the fastest in the Gulfstream fleet.
The G500 entered service in September 2018 and introduced the award-winning Gulfstream Symmetry
Flight Deck, which features safety enhancing technology including the industry’s first active control
sidesticks and most extensive use of touch screens, along with Phase-of-Flight intelligence. The aircraft
has a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.925 and can fly 5,300 nm/9,816 km at Mach 0.85 or 4,500
nm/8,334 km at Mach 0.90.
Both aircraft provide the exceptional comfort of the Gulfstream Cabin Experience with 100% fresh air,
whisper-quiet sound levels, abundant natural light and a low cabin altitude.
Bahrain International Airshow attendees can view the G700 and G500 and speak with Gulfstream
representatives at Stand A39.
