Overview

This article covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N209FB, a Gulfstream G280 built in 2013 with manufacturer serial 2018. The aircraft is owned by Tail Aviation LLC of Woburn, MA, US, and is registered in the US. Throughout its documented history the airframe is associated with that single listed corporate owner and operator base; no other registry actions or changes of ownership are recorded in the supplied data. Condition and valuation details are not published in the provided dataset.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin of this airframe is configured in a two-zone executive layout with forward club seating and an aft divan opposite additional club seats, together forming a typical 9-passenger fit; a forward galley and aft lavatory are installed to support executive mission profiles. Avionics are listed as Gulfstream PlaneView280™ / Collins ProLine Fusion-class, with reports specifying Collins ProLine Fusion 3.6 with triple MCDUs, providing modern flight-deck capabilities for long-range, point-to-point business travel. Based at Woburn, MA, US under corporate operation by Tail Aviation LLC, the aircraft is suited to typical transcontinental and regional corporate missions consistent with its 3,600 nm range and high-speed cruise. Maintenance and operational considerations for this specific airframe would follow manufacturer and engine OEM programs for the Gulfstream G280 and Honeywell AS907-2-1G powerplants, as applicable to a 2013-built airframe.

Model & Market Context

The Gulfstream G280 occupies the high-performance super-midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability with cruise speeds in the high 400-knot range and a service ceiling to 45,000 ft, as exemplified by N209FB. Competitors in this class typically include other super-midsize and light-large cabin types that target owner-operators and charter operators seeking combined speed, range, and cabin comfort. Buyer and charter demand for a 2013 airframe like N209FB would be influenced by maintenance status, avionics fit such as the reported PlaneView280™ / ProLine Fusion 3.6, and overall engine program history for the HTF7250G units. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on logged inspections, OEM service compliance, and any records of modifications or refurbishments not included in the supplied data.

Warm natural light fills a Gulfstream G280 cabin viewed aft along its dropped aisle, with cream leather club seats, a three-place divan, upright rounded windows and polished wood veneer.
