Gulfstream Rides On Wings Of Prosperity
The primary driver for Gulfstream is its flagship G650, though sales of the G450 and G550 are still holding up.
The Gulfstream G450/550 plant harks back to how aircraft were made in the 1950s and 1960s. When filled with workers, the facility is somewhat cramped, work areas are littered with paper forms and manuals and noise from rivet guns echo throughout–a complete contrast to the newer G650 production facility.
