Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. said it has completed its manufacturing facility for the Gulfstream G400, Gulfstream G500, and Gulfstream G600 business jets. The expansion project at the company’s operations in Savannah, Georgia (KSAV), increases the facility capacity by 142,000 square feet.

“Gulfstream continues to invest across all our facilities, including in Savannah, our headquarters for more than 50 years,” said Mark Burns, president of Gulfstream. “We designed the G400, G500, and G600 to have a number of commonalities that increase both operational and manufacturing efficiencies.
