Gulfstream G500 and Gulfstream G600 have received certification for steep approach landing by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), allowing operations at even more airports worldwide. G500 and G600 received Federal Aviation Administration steep-approach certification in 2023 and 2024, respectively. To earn the FAA and EASA certifications, both aircraft successfully demonstrated steep-approach capabilities with low-speed handling and short-field landings at London City Airport in England and Lugano Airport in Switzerland.
Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream commented: “Our customers already benefit from the groundbreaking performance and efficiency of the G500 and G600. With EASA steep-approach certification now achieved, we’re proud to offer European operators even greater fleet flexibility by giving them access to more remote airports and destinations around the world.”
Today, there are more than 350 G500 and G600 aircraft in service around the world. The fleet has amassed a combined total of more than 350,000 hours, 173,000 landings and over 120 city-pair speed records.
