Gulfstream flight-tests second outfitted G700 aircraft.
The G700 jet includes configurations of up to five living areas on the aircraft.

The aim of the second G700 test aircraft is to ensure the maturity, durability and comfort of more cabin elements that were introduced with the G700’s launch in 2019.

Gulfstream Aerospace Corp has recently announced that the company has successfully completed the flight test of a second fully outfitted Gulfstream G700 production-test aircraft. The completion of the test adds an additional testing platform for the most spacious cabin in business aviation. The aircraft has joined the first outfitted Gulfstream G700 that was introduced by the company. Gulfstream Aerospace Corp is a designer, developer, manufacturer, and service provider for business jet aircraft.

According to Gulfstream the aim of the second G700 test aircraft is to ensure the maturity, durability and comfort of more cabin elements that were introduced with the G700’s launch in 2019. This also includes the all-new ultrahigh-definition dynamic circadian lighting system which is an optional feature capable of replicating sunlight.

The Gulfstream-designed system mixes warm white, cool white and amber LED lights and spans from 0.01 brightness to 100%, allowing it to simulate sunrise to sunset. The lighting can also be programmed individually for each cabin zone, tailored to passenger preferences and specific activities, such as dining or working.

“With its combination of cabin size and technological enhancements, the G700 interior presents an abundance of opportunity for customization,” said Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream. “As part of our goal to exceed customer expectations, we are testing even more G700 cabin elements to ensure interior comfort and reliability, With two outfitted G700 test aircraft now flying, we can showcase even more of the interior flexibility of this aircraft and the passenger benefits gained from the award-winning comfort and signature cabin environment the G700 provides on globe-spanning flights, he further added.

The latest G700 outfitted aircraft also includes a grand suite and newly designed spacious lavatory with natural light, full vanity and shower, as well as a six-place dining area with a fully expandable, self-contained table.
