  1. FlexJet Moves Forward G450 Delivery Date
    Even though FlexJet took delivery of their first G450 long-range executive jet from Gulfstream back in June, the company still has more on order. Two of those G450s were expected to be handed over to FlexJet in 2016. However, according to FlexJet, demand is so great, it has forced them -and Gulfstream- to advance the delivery schedule for those two aircraft to near the end of 2015. Actually, mid-2016 was the original delivery schedule but now they are looking at delivering for Fall to meet FlexJet's new wishes.
  2. According to CEO of FlexJet Michael Silvestro, “Our sales for the year are up 20 percent and the marketplace clearly is hungry for extended-range products from Gulfstream. Stepping up our delivery schedule will help us to satisfy this appetite. Gulfstream’s willingness to make this change for us illustrates the type of strong partnership we have built during the past year.” The G450s are part of a larger Gulfstream order that was placed by FlexJet in 2014 and if all orders/options are exercised it would potentially see 50 Gulfstream executive jets delivered to FlexJet. The order is diverse to the extent that G450, G500 and top-of-the-range G650 have been selected.
