RADAR ESTIMATE

RESEARCH NOTES

About N15GX

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

The airframe bearing tail number N15GX is a 2008-built Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global Express XRS, serial 9278, currently owned by Oracle Navigation LLC, a corporate owner based in Redwood City, CA, US. Ownership by Oracle Navigation LLC represents the most recent known corporate registry entry and the aircraft has been presented in records consistent with typical Global Express XRS maintenance and sale listings.

Operations & Cabin

This specific airframe is reported in sales/listing records to carry a 14-passenger executive layout with a forward galley, forward and aft lavatories, and an aft lounge/bedroom typical of XRS configurations, while its type certificate seating capacity is 23 seats. Avionics are documented as Honeywell Primus 2000 / Primus Elite, with listings for the model family noting optional upgrades such as HUD and EVS that may be present on individual examples. Typical mission profiles for this Global Express XRS include long-range executive transport and transcontinental or intercontinental charters, leveraging the airframe’s 6,700 nm range and 51,000 ft ceiling. Based at the owner’s home region in the San Francisco Bay area in public records, the aircraft’s layout and equipment suit both private corporate travel and high-end charter missions; maintenance considerations follow the Global Express common-support practices for BR710 powerplants and Honeywell avionics suites.

Model & Market Context

The Bombardier BD-700-1A10 Global Express XRS occupies the long-range ultra-large-cabin business jet niche, offering transoceanic capability and higher speed/cruise than many comparable types. Competing models include late-generation Gulfstream and Dassault Falcon large-cabin types; buyer demand focuses on range, cabin volume and avionics fit. Market and resale considerations for this 2008 serial 9278 example hinge on its executive interior condition, documented avionics configuration, BR710 engine hours/overhaul status, and the completeness of maintenance records, factors that substantively affect valuation and post-sale operating costs.
