I fly a Gulfstream 550. It is a great machine with Synthetic Vision, Heads up Display and EVS (enhanced vision system). One stop anywhere in the world.

The G550 does have a certain je ne sais quoi. Ramp presence for sure. We air traffic controllers love Large weight category business jets for wake- turbulence sequencing.

The G550 is a sexy plane as is a treat to fly. We have the flexibility to fit in with almost any ATC flow or request.

Yep. Just easier for us. Citations and smaller falcons require extra space on the final and much more attention due to the 4nm threshold rule. A G550 can snug right up to 2.5nm in trail of other Large cat aircraft.

I was unable to rotate the pic ninety degrees, that said, I love aerobatics. Now I just have to convince the passengers, hehe.
