“We have seen astounding demand for the G800, and the entire Gulfstream team is excited to begin making deliveries to our customers. The G800 is entering service with extraordinary program maturity, just like the Gulfstream G700 before it. We look forward to customers around the world experiencing the aircraft’s remarkable capabilities and cabin comfort, and I congratulate Gulfstream’s Appleton team — and the more than 21,000 Gulfstream employees worldwide — for this significant accomplishment in delivering another quality product from our next-generation family of aircraft.” Source: Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream, discussing the first G800 delivery.
