EMCJET is proud to announce that Gulfstream Aerospace, in partnership with General Dynamics, has secured certification for the G800 from both the FAA and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency. This landmark achievement follows the recent FAA approval of the Rolls‑Royce Pearl 700 engines powering the G700 and G800, highlighting Gulfstream’s commitment to breaking performance boundaries and delivering next‑generation capabilities to business aviation.

Performance That Pushes Boundaries

Equipped with the latest Pearl 700 propulsion system and a Gulfstream‑engineered aerodynamic wing and winglet, the G800 redefines range and speed. At a long‑range cruise of Mach 0.85, it can fly 8,200 nautical miles non‑stop—enough to connect New York with Singapore without refueling. When flown at a high‑speed cruise of Mach 0.90, it still covers 7,000 nautical miles, and at Mach 0.87 achieves an unprecedented 8,000 nautical‑mile range. To further enhance point‑to‑point performance, Gulfstream raised the maximum operating speed from Mach 0.925 to Mach 0.935, shaving significant time off intercontinental routes.

Operational Enhancements Expand Access

Beyond raw performance, the G800 delivers shorter field requirements than initially projected, giving operators more airport options worldwide. Its balanced field take‑off distance now stands at 5,812 feet, while the landing distance is 3,105 feet—both improvements that unlock many regional and secondary airfields previously beyond the reach of ultra‑long‑range jets. As Gulfstream President Mark Burns explains, “With the certification of the G800, Gulfstream has again exceeded expectations. This aircraft represents the next evolution in business aviation, combining ultra‑long‑range performance, high‑speed capability, and superior fuel efficiency—benefits our customers will experience immediately.”

Cabin Innovation for Unparalleled Comfort

Inside the G800, Gulfstream’s signature emphasis on passenger well‑being shines through. Cruising at 41,000 feet, the cabin altitude is held at a remarkable 2,840 feet, reducing fatigue on long flights. Sixteen panoramic oval windows flood the interior with natural light and offer expansive views, while a whisper‑quiet environment creates the perfect ambiance for work or relaxation. The flexible floor plan can be configured into four separate living areas—or three plus a dedicated crew compartment—ensuring every journey is tailored to your priorities, whether that’s productivity, privacy, or leisure.

What This Means for You

For executives, heads of state, and discerning travelers who demand seamless global itineraries, the G800 represents an inflection point. Its extended reach makes ultra‑long‑haul missions—from Los Angeles to Melbourne or London to Tokyo—truly non‑stop. Improved runway performance broadens your destination options, unlocking smaller airports closer to your final destination and saving valuable ground time. EMCJET is ready to guide you through technical specifications, ownership structures, and delivery schedules to ensure you capitalize on these unparalleled capabilities.
