Gulfstream handed over the first European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)-certified G600 ultra-long-range jet to an undisclosed customer, the Savannah, Georgia-based airframer said Wednesday. The ultra-long-range model, which can travel 6,600 nm under a recently announced range boost, had received European validation in May, not quite a year after the FAA awarded type certification. The company delivered the initial G600 in August 2019.

The delivery to a European customer marks an expansion of the global fleet, Gulfstream noted. “We are glad our customers in Europe can now register their G600 on the continent and easily experience the advanced technology and cabin comfort of the aircraft,” said Gulfstream president Mark Burns, noting positive feedback the company has received from the use of the aircraft’s Symmetry Flight Deck and cabin features. “With the latest range increase—the third for the G600—customers in Europe and around the world will get even more out of their aircraft.”

In addition to the FAA and EASA, the G600 has received approval from aviation agencies in Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, the Isle of Man, San Marino, and Mexico.
