First two G700 aircraft have been delivered and are now in service with Gulfstream customers. G700 features the most spacious cabin in the industry and the Gulfstream Cabin Experience with 100% fresh air, whisper-quiet noise levels, natural light from 20 Gulfstream Panoramic Oval Windows and the industry’s lowest cabin altitude. The aircraft set more than 50 city-pair speed records prior to entering service and can fly 7,750 nautical miles/14,353 kilometers at Mach 0.85 or 6,650 nm/12,316 km at Mach 0.90. The maximum operating speed of the G700 is Mach 0.935, the fastest in the Gulfstream fleet.

Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream commented: “Beginning G700 customer deliveries less than one month after achieving Federal Aviation Administration type certification marks an incredible milestone in Gulfstream’s history of raising the bar for the business aviation industry. We appreciate the confidence our customers have demonstrated in our aircraft and look forward to continuing these deliveries in the weeks ahead. We are excited for our customers to experience the unparalleled G700 as we continue to deliver this exceptional aircraft around the world.”
