About the Gulfstream G150
Type certificated 2005 Source: FAA Type Certificate Data Sheet
Overview
The Gulfstream G150 is the wide-cabin evolution of the G100, and at launch it was marketed as the fastest midsize business jet of its day, cruising to Mach 0.85. Built by Israel Aerospace Industries and certified in 2005, it kept the G100’s slatted transonic wing but grafted on a wider, longer oval fuselage, adding twelve inches of cabin width and a sixteen-inch stretch to fix the one complaint that dogged the round-section Astra line: shoulder room. Twin Honeywell TFE731-40AR engines and a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 flight deck round out a modern-for-its-era midsize. Gulfstream stopped the line in 2016 and delivered the last in 2017, replacing it with the clean-sheet Gulfstream G280.
Against the G100 it replaced, the G150’s argument is cabin, not speed: a fuselage twelve inches wider, about 2,950 nm with NBAA reserves, and the same 45,000 ft ceiling, at a higher acquisition and hourly cost. The two are near-matched in cruise, so shoulder room and the modern Pro Line 21 flight deck are the reasons to step from a G100 to a G150; against the broader class the G150 gives up a little cabin volume to the wider Hawker 800XP and the flat-floor competitors.
Key Features for GA Buyers
- Speed leader: marketed as the fastest midsize of its era, with a Mach 0.85 top end and typical high-speed cruise near 459 KTAS.
- Wider oval cabin: a twelve-inch-wider fuselage than the G100, the visible reason the G150 exists, with more shoulder and aisle room.
- Modern flight deck: the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 integrated avionics suite, a clear step up from the Astra-era panels.
Trade-offs
- Runway demand: a balanced field length around 5,000 ft at weight keeps it off the shortest strips that lighter-midsize jets can use.
- Out of production: Gulfstream ended the line in 2017 and moved to the G280, a factor in long-term support and residual value.
- Engine-program exposure: the TFE731-40AR is maintained on-condition and normally enrolled on a Honeywell MSP hourly program; confirm program status at purchase, since an off-program engine near a major inspection is a large reserve exposure.
