    I think I am going to quit my job and join the FBI, they apparently get to fly around in a G550 solving case by case just like the TV show Criminal Minds

    What the hell is a tv shoe? Do they come in a triple e?

    Why not just buy a used one. 60million seems like a reasonable price to me.

    Don't you have something better to do than stalk me while I am creating a new thread and finding my spelling errors that were only up until corrected for all of about 20 seconds ?!?

    Your title caught my eye. On friday night I talked to a friend of mine who is the Head Pilot for a very large aviation company here in the US. They have 2 G-5's a G-4, several Falcon's and a Cessena Citaxtion.
    The G-5 50 he was flying on Thrusday can fly New York to Paris, drop off passengers and fly back to New York without having to get fuel. It has flown Tokyo to New York non-stop with the tail wind.
    At .80 Mach it call fly for 10 hrs at 42,000 ft. and at .74 Mach it is rated at 13 hrs at 42,000 ft. That's a hell of a plane. Oh get this, on take off you can rotate at 120 knts and when landing you can land when low on fuel at 90-100 knts. Truely an amazing plane.
    He is going to email a few pictures of the main hanger and the G5 sometime this week.

    It does seem like a pretty cool plane, but if it was sitting on a moving treadmill runway (like a giant conveyer), that was able to somehow track it's speed...oh never mind.

    Never been in a G5 but I have been in a few G4's. The G4's are run by tablet PC's. It's kind of cool to power up a plane by hitting a few buttons on a PC and watch the whole thing come to life.
