Tour The Gulfstream G650, The Best Private Jet $65 Million Can Buy

We saw a lot of remarkable planes at the Paris Air Show last month, but one new jet really stood out: the Gulfstream G650.
At $65 million, it's the biggest, fastest, and overall best private jet money can buy.
It also takes a lot of patience to get your hands on one — order now, and you'll get your G650 in 2017.
But once you're on board, you can fly around the planet faster and higher than on any commercial jet, in a cabin flooded with natural light and filled with air that is actually richer than what you breathe in cheaper planes.
With the G650, Gulfstream "established a new market segment for the whole industry," communications head Steve Cass said in an interview at the Paris Air Show. And there won't be any real competitors until 2016/2017, when Bombardier's Global 7000/8000 is scheduled to go into service.
Until then,the G650 will remain the gold standard, and it's easy to see why.

The G650 is the largest purpose-built private jet on the market, and has the tallest, longest, and widest cabin in its class.

 

 

At its maximum takeoff weight, it can climb to 41,000 feet (above bad weather and crowded commercial jet routes) in just 22 minutes.

With two Rolls-Royce engines, the plane has a top speed of Mach .925 — nearly the speed of sound, and much faster than commercial jets.

 

 

Big windows in the cockpit allow the pilots to see the tips of the plane's wings, helpful for navigating on the ground.
