Gulfstream Aerospace is eyeing growing demand in Central Europe with plans to showcase its G500 large-cabin business jet at Aero Friedrichshafen from April 17 to 20 in Germany. While a general aviation show, Aero Friedrichshafen attracts a range of exhibitors and industry professionals, from the ultra-light and experimental to the eVTOL and novel inventions on up to light turbines. But Gulfstream’s return shows a continuing growth in the show’s reach across the general aviation and business aviation spectrum.
Gulfstream marked its first appearance in Friedrichshafen at the 2023 show, viewing the event as a window to the market in the heart of Europe. The move continues its decision to focus on regional events in place of exhibiting at the large business aviation staples of NBAA-BACE held last October in Las Vegas and the upcoming EBACE in Geneva in May.
Instead, Gulfstream looked to the Middle East market with an exhibit at the Dubai Airshow and the Southeast Asia market with the Singapore Airshow, debuting its new flagship—the G700—at each of those events in recent months.
At Aero Friedrichshafen, Gulfstream is displaying its Mach 0.925, 5,300-nm jet that brings advanced technologies such as active control sidesticks, extensive touchscreen use, and Phase-of Flight intelligence.
“Gulfstream is seeing strong demand and a growing fleet opportunity in Germany,” said Scott Neal, senior vice president of worldwide sales for Gulfstream. “The fuel efficiency, safety advances, and performance capabilities of our next-generation aircraft are ideal for operators in this region.”
