SAVANNAH, Ga., September 12, 2024 — Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. today announced the first Gulfstream G400 intended for dedicated charter operations has been purchased by German-based DC Aviation Group. The sale was announced during a signing ceremony at Gulfstream’s Customer Support facility in Farnborough, England.
“We appreciate DC Aviation’s commitment to and confidence in the G400, bringing this category-leading aircraft to European charter customers,” said Scott Neal, senior vice president, worldwide sales, Gulfstream. “The compelling combination of speed, efficiency and cabin size of the G400 fills a much-needed void in its category. We are seeing strong demand for this aircraft in Europe and around the world.”
The all-new G400 made its first flight on August 15, officially launching the aircraft’s flight test program, and boasts class-leading performance and efficiency thanks to the combination of Gulfstream’s aerodynamic clean-wing design and advanced Pratt & Whitney Canada PW812GA engines. The aircraft also features Gulfstream’s next-generation avionics and technology, including the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck with the industry’s first active control sidesticks, most extensive use of touch-screen technology and the award-winning Predictive Landing Performance System. The G400 can connect important business hubs like Munich to Mumbai; Zurich to New York; or Geneva to Dubai; among other nonstop flights, all at speeds faster than any aircraft in its market segment.
In the cabin, G400 customers will benefit from the Gulfstream Cabin Experience with 100% fresh, never recirculated air; a plasma ionization clean air system; the lowest cabin altitude in its class; and abundant natural light from 10 Gulfstream Panoramic Oval Windows. With a choice of three floorplan options with seating for up to nine, 11 or 12 passengers, the G400 offers a spacious and flexible interior.
“We are extremely proud to be pioneering this new aircraft model in Europe,” said Marc Ambrosius, managing director of DC Aviation Group. “The introduction of the G400 demonstrates DC Aviation’s constant commitment to providing a premier travel experience for our clients.”
“This G400 aircraft model exemplifies our dedication to offering the highest standards of safety, cabin convenience and reliability to our customers,” added Svenja Wortmann, also managing director of DC Aviation.
