New G400 Experience Tour Launched By Gulfstream Gulfstream is giving customer the chance to see the G400 cabin mockup first hand to experience the aircraft well before hand. The Gulfstream G400 was announced back in October 2021 to coincide with the NBAA show at the time. Now Gulfstream is affording customers across the United States to envelope themselves in what will be more like the finished cabin of this new model. The G400 Experience Tour includes stops in Miami, Houston, Dallas, Denver, Seattle, Chicago, New York, Pittsburgh, and Washington, D.C., during the spring and summer.
What can customers expect on the G400? In the interior, customers can choose from three floorplans with seating for up to nine, 11 or 12 passengers. The G400 also provides the signature Gulfstream Cabin Experience, with 100% fresh air, low cabin altitude, whisper-quiet noise levels and abundant natural light from 10 Gulfstream panoramic oval windows, along with a plasma ionization air purification system. The aircraft features class-leading field performance and can fly 4,200 nautical miles/7,778 kilometers at its long-range cruise speed of Mach 0.85. Pratt & Whitney PW812GA engines will power the aircraft.
Work is ongoing to get the first article that will represent the first flight test vehicle (FTV) to fly later this year. Once this happens, the G400 test program will be comprised of three-more aircraft to make a total of four FTVs. Additionally there will be a single G400 dedicated to maturing the interior cabin experience. That aircraft will be fitted with a full production interior to be tested in real-world conditions. Testing should be precise and swift as Gulfstream anticipates entry into service (EIS) for the G400 to be in 2025.
