RESEARCH NOTES
About N147SF
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, N147SF, is a 2003-built Gulfstream Aerospace GV-SP (G550), serial number 5017, registered in the United States. It is owned by As Aviation III LLC, an LLC based in Knoxville, TN, US, and operates from that locality as its principal base. The airframe is equipped with long-range systems and a corporate seating configuration for up to 20 passengers; its U.S. registration and ownership by a Tennessee-based LLC are the principal recorded registry facts for this specific aircraft. The aircraft’s configuration and avionics fit reflect a business-jet operator profile rather than airline or military use.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of N147SF is configured for up to 20 seats, indicating a high-density corporate or charter layout suited to long transcontinental and intercontinental missions within the aircraft’s 6,750 nm range. Avionics are fitted with Honeywell Primus Epic / Gulfstream PlaneView, providing integrated flight deck situational awareness and systems management consistent with Gulfstream’s late-model corporate fleet. Typical missions for this airframe would include transoceanic business travel and high-altitude cruise operations at its 51,000 ft ceiling and 488 kt cruise speed, operated principally from its Knoxville, Tennessee base. Maintenance considerations follow the BR710 family engine program and Gulfstream GV-SP structural and avionics support regimes for a 2003-build airframe.
Model & Market Context
The Gulfstream GV-SP (G550) family occupies the long-range, large-cabin business-jet niche, offering extended-range performance, here shown by the 6,750 nm capability, and high cruise speed and altitude. Competing models in the segment include other ultra-long-range business jets from Bombardier and Dassault, where buyers and charter operators value reliability, range, and cabin capacity. For a 2003 serial like 5017, maintenance tracking of BR700-series engines and the PlaneView/Primus Epic avionics suite, along with documented ownership as As Aviation III LLC, are key considerations in resale and operator support planning.
