Talk:Gulfstream V

message: The Gulfstream G550 is the production name for the Gulfstream V SP.  The GV SP name was used during flight test but marketed as the G550. The G500 is a variant of the G550 model.
There are significant differences in Max Ramp and TO weights of the G500 and the G550.   If your goal is to keep the GV and G550 separate, you should eliminate reference to the GV SP on the GV page.

thread_title:  Confusion over Gulfstream V SP and G550 

message: Is this relevant?
Quote: "The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s ownership of a G-V seems to be authenticated by recent budget requests.[7] Its use has drawn controversy where FBI director Robert Mueller is said to be using the jet 25% of the time, when the jet was originally requisitioned for use for transporting those suspected of terrorism.[8][9]"
Seems to be a bit of political trivia for this article, not "operational history."  Furthermore, "seems to be authenticated by recent budget requests" suggests original research, likely done by someone with an agenda.  
I just noticed this when looking up the G5 because of the news of Speaker Pelosi's aide ranting about one not being available for her use.  Not that I think that is relevant information in this article either!  Of course, if people want to make this informational article have a political slant to it, I'll be happy to add the Pelosi bit...just sayin'...

thread_title:  Operational History 

message: I believe that a ~100 seat airplain (the A318) is NOT similar to a ~12 seat airplane.  Does anyone see a reason to have the A318 removed from the list?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.10.193.24 (talk) 18:02, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The A318 Elite is a business jet configuration and seats up to 18.  Seems close enough here.. -Fnlayson (talk) 18:35, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  The business jets are normally grouped by range (ultra-long, long, medium, short), cabin size (bizliners, large, super-mid-size etc.), MTOM (max take-off mass). The GV is an ultra-long range (6,500 nm), large cabin (1,669 cub. ft cabin), heavy (MTOM 90,500 lb) business jet. The A318 Elite is a long-range (3,800 nm range) bizliner (5,300 cub. ft cabin and a MTOM of 149,913 lb). Forget about pax capacity. It is irrelevant when talking about business jets. The GV (and obviously G550, G500) is comparable and competes with Bombardier Global Express (and Global Express XRS) and Dassault Falcon 7X. That's all. A318 Elite is comparable to... nothing, as it has the shortest range and cabin of known classic "bizliners" (BBJ, BBJ2, BBJ3, ACJ, A320 Prestige, Lineage 1000). Closest comparable a/c is probably Lineage 1000. The.rud (talk) 10:08, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  A318 [Elite] is a "similar aircraft"?  Are you kidding me?

thread_title:  main image change 

message: The GV-SP (G550) is a tiny difference variant :  updated flightdeck and engine, few aero tweaks, 1 more window pair. Airframe, mtow, performance are nearly the same. They should be merged for clarity : too much information is duplicated between both, they have a common history, it should be easier to distinguish between both variants in the same article (and limit errors). --Marc Lacoste (talk) 17:47, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course WP isn't paper, but there is very small differences between both (6500 vs 6750nm range due to tweaks, same airframe, same engines). Themselves haven't real variants, as the 4 G500 are a reduced mtow paper variant, and the other are military designation of the same AC. There are less differences between those than between a 1995 PC-12 and a 2015 one. Right now the G550 article is poor, perhaps it could be re-split if its paragraphs became large? --Marc Lacoste (talk) 13:48, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
