This delivery is a testament to the hard work, dedication and innovation of Gulfstream's workforce.

The G450 offers the most comfortable and comprehensively equipped cabin in its class with three seating areas, a full-size galley and a large baggage area, which can be accessed in- flight. Its cabin environment is unmatched with 100 percent fresh air, a 6,000-foot/1,829-meter cabin altitude, quiet sound levels, and Gulfstream's signature oval windows for abundant natural light.

The G450 is equipped with the Gulfstream PlaneViewTM flight deck, which increases pilots' situational awareness, reduces their workload and improves the overall safety of the aircraft. The Head-Up Display and the Enhanced Vision System are standard on the G450. In addition, Gulfstream continues to upgrade the PlaneView system to meet the latest regulations around the world and now includes Controller Pilot Data Link Communications and Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast Out (DO-260A) as standard equipment.
