Gulfstream has delivered its 300th super-midsize G280. The company handed over its first of the twinjets in 2012, and its in-service fleet has tallied more than 575,000 flight hours and nearly 358,000 landings since.

The type—the smallest in Gulfstream’s product range—has earned an NBAA dispatch reliability rate of 99.98% thus far and has achieved 87 city-pair speed records. With multiple seating options, the G280 can carry up to 10 passengers, and its Honeywell HTF7250G engines give it a range of 3,600 nm at a long-range cruise speed of Mach 0.80.
