That first aircraft has been used for envelope expansion, reaching as high as 54,000 feet and Mach 0.999. Jake Howard, the lead test pilot for the G700 program, noted the dive speed that Gulfstream must test to for the G700 is Mach 0.995. When asked about potential supersonic testing, he said there was no “intent to intentionally” fly beyond that speed in testing.

In addition to high speed, the aircraft also has performed low-speed and stall tests, including with wing ice shapes. Throughout the flight regime the aircraft has “performed remarkably well, flying virtually squawk free” and is meeting performance expectations, Miller said. Meanwhile, the aircraft’s Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines are performing “fantastically well; they are extremely efficient giving us great results for speed, range, and low emissions,” he added.

The test regimen will encompass more than 15,500 test points, validating every facet of the cabin to ensure the utmost in interior comfort and reliability upon customer delivery.

“Flying a fully outfitted aircraft signals significant progress in the G700 flight-test program,” said Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream. “The G700 interior is raising the bar for cabin innovation and customization.

The G700 cabin, the most spacious in the industry, can be configured for up to five living areas with the option to include a passenger lounge in the ultragalley and/or a grand suite with optional shower.

The Symmetry Flight Deck™ on the G700 features the industry’s only active-control sidesticks, most extensive use of touch-screen technology and a data concentration network, as well as the award-winning Gulfstream Predictive Landing Performance System and Enhanced Flight Vision System and Synthetic Vision on dual head-up displays.

The aircraft is powered by Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines and can fly at its high-speed cruise of Mach 0.90 for 6,400 nautical miles/11,853 kilometers or at its long-range cruise of Mach 0.85 for 7,500 nm/13,890 km.
