N144PK1992 Gulfstream IV-SP

Overview

The airframe registered as N144PK is a 1992 Gulfstream G-IV/SP, serial number 1210, manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation. This specific airframe is owned by Avire LLC, an LLC based in West Hollywood, CA, US, and is registry-marked in the United States. Condition highlights include a typical executive retrofit and reported passenger connectivity equipment noted in broker/record listings.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin is listed in broker information as a 15-passenger / executive layout, with a forward crew area and aft galley typical for this airframe, while the certified seating capacity is 22. Reported avionics and mission systems for this airframe include an ATG-5000 passenger connectivity installation and the airframe is generally equipped with the typical integrated Collins/Honeywell avionics suites found on G-IV/SPs, though fit varies by airframe. Typical operations for this aircraft type and configuration include transcontinental and intercontinental corporate transport within the aircraft’s 4,220 nm range, operating from its operator’s base in California for executive travel and charter missions. Maintenance considerations reflect an older airframe vintage (1992 production) and the needs of Rolls-Royce Tay 611-8 engine support and avionics upgrade cycles to maintain market competitiveness.

Model & Market Context

The Gulfstream G-IV/SP family occupies the long-range large cabin business jet niche, offering transcontinental reach and high cruise speed compared with light and mid-size jets. Competing models for mission profiles include late-model Bombardier and Dassault long-range types, though older G-IV/SPs trade at discounted values relative to newer models. Buyer and charter demand tends to favor airframes with modern avionics and connectivity retrofits, features reported on this unit, while maintenance and resale considerations hinge on engine life, records, and completing recurrent avionics/airframe upgrades.
