Gulfstream Aerospace is continuing to invest in its super-midsize Gulfstream G280 with the addition of an even lower cabin altitude and new LED exterior lights.
The new enhancements follow a record sales year and exemplify Gulfstreamβs ongoing commitment to the G280.
βThe G280 continues to set the standard for the super-midsize class and we are seeing outstanding levels of interest from customers around the world,β said Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream. βThis past year marked a record sales year for the G280, validating that our continued investment has been well-received.β
Ongoing research and development coupled with interior outfitting has allowed Gulfstream to introduce an even lower cabin altitude for the G280, reducing it from 6,000 feet/1,829 meters to 4,800 ft/1,463 m at a 41,000-ft/12,497-m cruising altitude. The new lower cabin altitude means less strain on the body, leaving customers even more relaxed and refreshed when they reach their destination.
The G280βs new exterior LED lights bolster aircraft safety through increased visibility in flight and during ground operations. This upgrade also boasts reduced maintenance requirements and improved reliability.
The improved cabin altitude and LED lights will be available on new G280s mid-2023 and for
existing customers as an optional retrofit.
