New Upgraded Cabin Mock-Up For G600 Unveiled By Gulfstream American executive jet airframer Gulfstream used the 2015 NBAA show in Las Vegas, Nevada to reveal a brand new and upgraded interior for the G600 business jet. They used a full-scale cabin mock-up to demonstrate the new design and spaciousness that will be available on the new jet when it becomes a reality. The improvements to the mock-up are the result of extensive customer feedback received over the past 12 months. The redesigned mock-up features: a slimmer passenger service unit for increased headroom and maximized passenger space, an expanded side ledge, additional counter space in the galley, an ergonomically enhanced aft lavatory, enhanced cabin lighting, quieter drawer and cabinet latches, an improved seat for enhanced comfort and ease of use and stone flooring in the entry way and forward lavatory.
“We have collaborated with our customers throughout this project,” said Tray Crow, director, Interior Design, Gulfstream. “Since unveiling the original G600 mock-up at the G500 and G600 announcement event in October 2014, we have been gathering feedback from customers to ensure we meet their needs and deliver an ideal in-flight environment. The interior is so comfortable and functional that passengers will forget they are traveling near the speed of sound.” The G600 mock-up also includes the Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck™. It is the most advanced flight deck in business aviation and features active control side-sticks, integrated touchscreen controllers, next-generation enhanced vision system, and Honeywell Primus Epic avionics. Certification of the G500 is anticipated in 2017, with entry into service in 2018. The G600 certification is slated to follow in 2018, with entry into service in 2019.
