Gulfstream G550 for Sale

G550 for sale: the five June 2026 tails

Every aircraft below is configured for 14 passengers:

• 2018, 800 hours, United Kingdom. The seller calls it the lowest-time G550 on the market, with a premium cabin. No engine programme is listed.
• 2011, 4,367 hours, North Carolina. Rolls-Royce CorporateCare Enhanced, forward galley, APU on Honeywell MSP.
• 2008, 5,170 hours, North Carolina. Fully enrolled, Starlink fitted in 2023, 2023 paint, forward galley plus crew rest.
• 2004, 5,182 hours, Florida. Engines on JSSI Pro Rata, APU on JSSI, Ka-band Wi-Fi, four US owners.
• 2004, 5,350 hours, New York. Rolls-Royce CorporateCare, a 192-month inspection with refurbishment in 2020, factory paint in 2017.

Because this list is a June picture, we ask each seller to confirm status before you spend time on a file.

What moves a G550 price

None of the five sellers disclosed a figure, so we give none here. What separates one G550 from another on price:

• Engine programme. CorporateCare, an independent JSSI contract and no cover at all are read very differently by buyers and lenders.
• Calendar inspections. An aircraft with its long-interval inspection behind it, like the 2004 New York jet, carries less near-term exposure than one approaching it.
• Hours against age. The 2018 aircraft has flown 800 hours; the 2004 pair are above 5,000.
• Cabin and connectivity. Starlink or Ka-band and a crew rest area earn their keep on Asia-Europe sectors.

Our private jet price guide sets these drivers out across types.

G550 range: Europe and North America from Asia

On our data sheet the G550 flies 6,750 nm at a 488 kt cruise, with a 1.88 m cabin height. We quote great-circle mileage in calm air; airways and weather make real routes longer.

• Mumbai to London, 3,910 nm. Under 60% of range, easy with every seat full.
• Hong Kong to London, 5,220 nm. About 77%, comfortable.
• Tokyo to New York, 5,860 nm. Around 87%, fine with normal loads.
• Delhi to New York, 6,340 nm, and Jakarta to London, 6,360 nm. Both within 10% of range, where wind, load and reserve policy settle it; a strong winter headwind can force a fuel stop.
• Mumbai to New York, 6,760 nm. Just beyond the published figure, so plan a stop in Europe.

Singapore to San Francisco (7,330 nm) needs a stop too; Tokyo splits it into 2,860 nm and 4,470 nm.

G550 versus G450, G500 and G650ER

The G550 grew out of the Gulfstream V. It flies on Rolls-Royce BR710 engines and introduced the Honeywell-based PlaneView flight deck. Its closest sibling is the G450, which came from the GIV line, shares the PlaneView cockpit and cabin cross-section, and trades cabin length and range (4,350 nm) for a lower price of entry.

Watch the names. From 2003 to 2012 Gulfstream sold a reduced-fuel G550 derivative called the G500. The G500 delivered since 2018 is a different, clean-sheet aircraft with fly-by-wire and the Symmetry flight deck. The G650ER sits above both, with a wider cabin and 7,500 nm.

Pre-owned G550 checklist

• Engine cover. Confirm what the BR710 contract covers and whether it transfers; the June tails mix CorporateCare, CorporateCare Enhanced, JSSI and none.
• APU. Separate cover exists on some tails, Honeywell MSP on one and JSSI on another.
• Inspections. Find the last long-interval calendar event and when the next falls due. One June listing reports its 192-month inspection done in 2020.
• Mandates. On early serials, confirm European CPDLC, ADS-B Out and FANS 1/A+ are installed and certified, with paperwork.
• Connectivity. Starlink was retrofitted on one aircraft in 2023; check approval on your intended register.
• Ownership chain. Four owners, as on one Florida jet, means four sets of records to reconcile.
• Corrosion. Twenty-year-old airframes heading to Jakarta or Singapore need close looks at drains, the lower fuselage and wheel wells.

Importing a G550 to India, Indonesia or Hong Kong

India, where aircraft carry VT- marks, levies IGST on imported aircraft; your tax adviser should confirm the rate and any relief that applies at the time. Indonesia (PK-) and Hong Kong, whose marks begin B-H, B-K or B-L, each have their own airworthiness and tax steps. Some owners skip a local register and fly on Isle of Man (M-) or Cayman (VP-C) marks through a management company. Our import tax guide outlines the general picture by country.
