Gulfstream Unveils a New Flagship

摘要

Carefully concealed in a research and development hangar at its Savannah, Georgia, headquarters campus, the first of what Gulfstream has designated the G700 awaits its first flight. This newest Gulfstream model is a stretched derivative of the G650ER, making it the largest, heaviest, roomiest, most luxurious, very likely the longest-range, and, at $75 million per, one of the most-expensive business jets yet built by the U.S. manufacturer. Quite clearly, it's intended to wrest the lead from Bombardier's 7,700-nm Global 7500 flagship, currently the world's biggest and farthest flying purpose-built business aircraft.
