Gulfstream G150 Aircraft Achieved Steep Approach Certification from the FAA

On February 2, 2010, Gulfstream Aerospace announced that the Gulfstream G150 aircraft had achieved steep approach certification from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The approval allowed the mid-size, high-speed G150 to operate at airports with an approach angle of up to 6 degrees. Most airports have an approach angle of 3.5 degrees or less. The G150 is powered by two fuel-efficient Honeywell TFE731 engines and a wide-cabin aircraft, offering the best performance in its mid-sized class with a range of 2,959 nautical miles at 0.75 Mach. It also offers the most comfortable cabin environment in its class. Its wide-body fuselage provides stand-up headroom, ample aisle space and generous legroom and headroom when seated.
