N1108M2015 Gulfstream G650ER

Overview

This entry covers the specific airframe N1108M, a Gulfstream G650ER (GVI) built in 2015 with serial number 6147. The airframe is recorded as owned by G15 Aviation LLC, an LLC based in Waterford, MI, US, and is US-registered. The aircraft’s configuration and condition are consistent with long-range executive service typical of late-model G650ERs.

Operations & Cabin

The type certificate for this airframe lists 22 seats, though common operator layouts for the G650/G650ER place executive interiors in the 12-19 passenger range with 3-4 zone configurations and options for forward or aft galley installations; this reflects typical flexibility for the model rather than an alteration specific to N1108M. Avionics fit is the Gulfstream standard for the type, the Gulfstream PlaneView II suite, providing the integrated flightdeck functionality expected on G650/G650ER airframes. Operationally, the G650ER platform is used on long overwater and transcontinental missions consistent with the 7,437 nm range and long-endurance cruise of 488 kts; the owner’s Waterford, Michigan location supports both domestic and international departures. Maintenance considerations follow Rolls-Royce BR725 family support patterns and Gulfstream heavy maintenance schedules applicable to 2015-build G650ERs.

Model & Market Context

The Gulfstream G650ER (GVI) occupies the ultra-long-range large-cabin business jet niche, combining high cruise speed with extended intercontinental range demonstrated here by N1108M’s 7,437 nm capability and 51,000 ft ceiling. Competitors typically include other ultra-long-range types from Bombardier and Dassault; demand in the charter and corporate owner markets favors late-production G650ERs for their speed, cabin size, and avionics like the Gulfstream PlaneView II.
