Third Gulfstream G250 flies

The third and final Gulfstream G250 test aircraft successfully flew on June 28.

Gulfstream designed and built the aircraft with Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) in Tel Aviv, Israel.

“It’s exciting to have all three test aircraft in the air,” said Pres Henne, senior vice president: programmes, engineering and test, Gulfstream. “What’s even more exciting is the response we’re getting from the pilots. They’ve told us that the aircraft’s handling qualities are excellent, rivaling those of our large-cabin aircraft.”
