New Super Mid-Sized Jet Takes To The Skies In Israel
Gulfstream’s new G300 super mid-sized jet has completed its maiden flight, marking a major milestone in the aircraft’s development. The flight took place in Israel, where Gulfstream is partnering with Israel Aerospace Industries to produce the G300. The aircraft performed well during the test, reaching an altitude of 30,000 feet and sustaining a speed of Mach 0.75 for 25 minutes. With a range of 3,600 nautical miles and a large interior, the G300 is set to replace the G280 and offer a competitive option in the business aviation market. The flight test program will continue with additional test aircraft, as reported by AeroTime.
