G150 Performance

The wide-cabin, high-speed Gulfstream G150® is the fastest mid-size business jet in the world today. To create this unique, continental-range, eight-passenger aircraft, Gulfstream's G150 development team worked to provide the longest range at the fastest speed while enabling short takeoff distances from demanding airports. In fact, Gulfstream delivered the G150 with more range and shorter takeoff and landing distances than what was originally promised. Gulfstream has a tradition of not only meeting, but also exceeding our customer's expectations.

The outstanding performance of the G150 is the result of superior aerodynamic design and efficient Honeywell engines. These TFE731-40AR engines have an increased thrust of 4,420 pounds (19.7 kN) each for good performance from hot and high airports. Think Aspen in summer or Toluca virtually anytime. These advanced engines also meet the stringent Stage 4 noise regulations.

With its improved aerodynamic profile and its more powerful engines, the new Gulfstream G150 has posted impressive numbers since going into service. In the first two years of service, the G150 has set 10 world city-pair speed records including New York to California, California to Hawaii, and from Aspen to New York.

The G150 can reach a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.85 and climb in steps to a ceiling of 45,000 feet (13,716 m), well above commercial traffic and weather. At its long-range cruise speed of Mach 0.75, it can whisk four passengers some 3,000 nautical miles (5,556 km). At Mach 0.80, the G150 can fly four passengers 2,600 nautical miles (4,185 km) in less than six hours. With this range and at this speed, Gulfstream's first true mid-size jet easily links New York with Los Angeles, London with Gander, São Paulo with Caracas and Cairo with Delhi.

The G150 outperforms every other mid-size business jet on the market today. It flies higher, faster and farther than the competition yielding an outstanding reputation. Due to its performance capability, large cabin and advanced avionics, the editors of Flying Magazine were so impressed, they presented the G150 with the Flying Magazine's 2006 "Editor's Choice" award.
