Gulfstream announced that it delivered its final commercial G550 business jet last week to an undisclosed international customer. The model entered service in 2003 and its design team was awarded that year’s Robert J. Collier Trophy for “leading edge achievement in designing, testing and building an innovative aircraft while incorporating measurable safety enhancements and far-reaching advances in aerospace technology.” According to the company, more than 600 G550s are currently in service.
