PERFORMANCE AND TECHNOLOGY

P
Performance
time is on your side.

With its long-range capability and short-range efficiency, the G280 proves
its time-saving abilities with ease. The world’s most remote destinations
lie well within its nonstop range, and world-wide city pairs are often just a
single refueling stop away.

How far can you go?

Fly four passengers more than 7.5 hours covering up to 3,600* nautical
miles (6,667 km) at a cruise speed of Mach 0.80. Reach top speeds of up
to Mach 0.85 – that’s over 560 miles per hour (900 km/h).

Takeoff

The G280 is versatile enough to get you where you need to go. Excellent
airfield performance allows you to operate from smaller, less busy airfields
and arrive closer to your final destination. And, with its new, advanced wing,
airframe and powerful engines, there is simply no sacrifice in performance
even under hot and high-elevation conditions.

Altitude

You’ll reach initial altitude of 43,000 feet (12,497 m) in less than 21 minutes.
At maximum altitude of up to 45,000 feet (13,716 m), cruise high over the
uncertainties of weather and busy commercial traffic for more direct routes
and reduced flight times.

Carrying Capacity

The G280 soars far beyond other business jets with the most payload
carrying capability in its class. You’ll reach 3,000 nautical miles (5,556 km)
carrying approximately 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg)**. That’s enough range to
carry 10 passengers from California to Hawaii***.

Technology
INNOVATION AT WORK.
Every advanced feature has been carefully pursued to reduce pilot workload
and improve situational awareness.

PlaneView280™ AVIONICS

The PlaneView280 cockpit is the most advanced flight deck in its class,
providing the latest in avionics functions such as interactive navigation,
electronic airport charts, video images and graphical weather. PlaneView280
immensely improves pilot workload, situational awareness, safety and
overall performance with every flight. From its adaptive flight displays and
intuitive Cursor Control Device interface to its high-resolution synoptic pages,
the PlaneView280 cockpit is beyond advanced.

AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY Descent

Another Gulfstream standard is the Automatic Emergency Descent Mode

(EDM). This unique feature provides protection to the crew and passengers
in the unlikely event of a cabin depressurization.

auto braking

The G280’s brake-by-wire system includes auto braking. Auto braking

enhances safety and reduces pilot workload when landing at short runways
or in the event of a rejected takeoff. During normal landings, auto braking
improves passenger comfort and reduces brake wear for lower operating
costs.

LOWER EMISSIONS

Honeywell HTF7250G engines offer an excellent combination of performance,

reliability and maintainability. The G280’s twin turbofans each provide 7,445
pounds (33 kN) of thrust yet are environmentally friendly with lower emissions
and quieter sound levels that meet Stage 4 noise regulations.

FUEL EFFICIENCY

Auto throttles are standard equipment and manage the engines through all
phases of flight to ensure peak efficiency and enhance safety and reliability.
The G280 is 7–12% more fuel efficient than any other aircraft in its class*.

* Block fuel for 2,500 nm mission with 4 passengers at Mach 0.80. Theoretical performance based on the assumptions noted.
Actual performance will be affected by ATC routing, operating speed, weather, outfitting options and other factors.

GLOBAL VERSATILITY
With its efficient wing and powerful engines, the G280 has
excellent takeoff performance from short runways or from
challenging hot and high airports. Departing Toluca, Mexico, at
an elevation of 8,466 feet (2,580 m) at a 30˚C / 86˚F departure
temperature, the G280 can easily reach New York City nonstop*.
