Discussion
G650 took its first flight last week... looks rather amazing.. although being a total Gulfstream Fanboy... it does look a bit like a global!!

What sort of dorrah for something like that? £15m?
Roughtly $40ish million + options and then + completion. So $50+ when your done!!I think our G550 was $47.5 delivered - now 18months old.
Ref the sleeping for 4... normal config will be a double bed at the back (so 2 or more or err!)
+ you can convert 4 of the other seats into flat sleepers... so technically you can sleep 6. on a standard 550 that is...
Up for rental if anyone is interested: http://www.gamagroup.com/aviation/fleet/gulfstream...

tbh... most are privately owned but managed by our company. Therefore we rent it out on their behalf to re-coup some of their running costs.
What's the cost of renting a private jet then??Say I wanted to travel with 5 friends from BRS to JFK/EWR/LGA and back?
your looking at Circa £7-8000 per hour of flight, Plus crew expenses, Plus positioning sectors, Plus catering, + permits etc.
To give you an idea, we did a 1 way bahamas job and it was rumoured to be in the region of £70k.
Although... not being a commercial man... i may be talking bks
ETA: that was on the aircraft i posted above. You could rent a LearJet or similar for 2k
upwards
