Paper Abstract: Evolution of corp. jet aircraft, focusing on Gulfstream V. Features, cost, power, dimensions, amenities. Paper Introduction: Gulfstream V The Gulfstream aircraft were originally designed and manufactured by the Grumman Corporation. Following World War II, Grumman recognized the need for corporate aircraft. Gulfstreams typically seat from 10 to 16 passengers. Like Grumman's fighter aircraft, the Gulfstreams not only possess state of the art technology, but are engineered to look tough as well. The latest addition to the aircraft's lineage is the Gulfstream V. The jet represents a significant technological improvement over the Gulfstream IV. In particular, the plane's range has been extended considerably. This feature, and others, should make the jet highly marketable. It is hoped that the Gulfstream V will reaffirm Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation's dominant position in the largebusinessjet market. Text of the Paper: The entire text of the paper is shown below.
