Gulfstream G150 receives TCV

Gulfstream has received a type certificate
validation (TCV) for the G150 executive jet from the Civil Aviation Administration
of China (CAAC), this will allow operators to register the business jet in the
country.

“This is reflective of the growing
worldwide popularity of Gulfstream aircraft,” said Larry Flynn, senior
vice president, Marketing and Sales, Gulfstream. “It also demonstrates our
commitment to ensuring Gulfstream ownership continues to be a smooth and simple
process, regardless of where the aircraft is registered. Getting type
certificate validation from China
makes an already attractive aircraft even more so.”

Gulfstream achieved the validation through
close coordination with the US Federal Aviation Administration, China’s CAAC
and the Civil Aviation Administration of Israel where the G150 airframe is
built.

“We’re pleased with the progress we’ve
made and the cooperation we’ve experienced as we work with all of these
regulatory agencies to the benefit of our international customers,” said
Bill Whitton, vice president, Organizational Designation Authorization,
Gulfstream.
