N187SF2012 Gulfstream G280

Overview

This entry covers the specific airframe N187SF, a Gulfstream G280 manufactured by IAI Ltd and completed in 2012 with serial 2014. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by Wildstar Partners LLC, an LLC based in Pittsford, NY, US.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin of N187SF is described in registry and manufacturer-derived listings as a typical executive layout supporting 2 crew + 8-10 passengers, while the aircraft registry explicitly lists 21 seats; the fitted interior includes a forward galley, aft lavatory and provisions for up to two living areas. Avionics are provided by Gulfstream PlaneView280™, supporting advanced flight management and systems integration suitable for long-range executive missions. Based in Pittsford, NY, US under Wildstar Partners LLC ownership, the airframe is configured for transcontinental and transoceanic business travel within its 3,600 nm range and high-speed cruise profile. Maintenance and operational considerations follow manufacturer and Honeywell engine support parameters for the AS907-2-1G powerplants and standard Gulfstream heavy maintenance cycles.

Model & Market Context

The Gulfstream G280 family occupies a super-midsize twinjet niche emphasizing transcontinental range, high cruise speed and a high-altitude ceiling. With a 459 kt cruise and 45,000 ft service ceiling, the type competes with other super-midsize business jets for corporate buyers and charter operators seeking long-range performance and cabin flexibility.
