Gulfstream G500 and G600

Tuesday, December 16, 2014

The top-of-the-line business jet maker Gulfstream unveils the G500 and G600.

The first G500 is readying for first flight soon.

**From nose to tail, the G600 bears a striking resemblance to the G650, though it has few components in common with the larger airplane. **

Gulfstream built a fully functional cabin laboratory.

The cabin of the G500 is huge, with G650-size windows and elegant styling.

Airplanes will be equipped with next-generation Rockwell Collins Head-up Guidance, with improved EVS sensors for even better performance.

G500s are already rolling down the production line of a brand-new factory.

Gone are the FMS computer keyboards, replaced by easy to use touch-screen controllers.
