On Tuesday (April 23), Gulfstream Aerospace announced it delivered the first two G700s to U.S.-based customers. Both are now in service with their buyers. The deliveries come less than a month after Gulfstream received FAA type and production certification (March 29 and April 8, respectively) for the new, Rolls-Royce Pearl 700-powered G700. The engines have greater than 18,000 pounds of thrust, each.
