The G600 can travel 12,223 kilometres at Mach 0.85 and 10,371 km at Mach 0.90. The wing design reduces drag and the engines provide significant improvements in environmental efficiency, Gulfstream says.

Gulfstream Aerospace has delivered its 50th Gulfstream G600 since the type first entered service in August 2019.

“With every new customer delivery, operators around the world are experiencing the tremendous benefits of the G600,” says Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream. “The G600 dominates the sweet spot of range, speed, cabin comfort and fuel efficiency, and overwhelming market enthusiasm is exceeding even our own high expectations.”

Featuring a high fuel efficiency due to the design and aerodynamics of the wing combined with Pratt & Whitney 800 series engines. The wing design reduces drag and the engines provide significant improvements in environmental efficiency. Nitrogen oxide emissions are 27% lower than the latest International Civil Aviation Organisation Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection's international requirements and emissions for carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and smoke are more than 75% better than international requirements.

It is significantly quieter than the latest Stage 5 noise limits, decreasing the impact the aircraft has on communities during takeoff and landing. The G600 and the G500 were the first aircraft, business or commercial, to be certified to Stage 5 noise standards.
