Houston is an international market, and a long range jet flies to Europe, Africa, or the Gulf states without a fuel stop. The Gulfstream G650 / G6 is one of the larger cabins we put in front of Houston groups before the trip moves to airliner-size.
Gulfstream Aerospace introduced the Gulfstream G650 / G6 in 2012. More than one lavatory is fitted, which starts to matter when the cabin is full on a long sector. FAA certified September 2012.

Why the Gulfstream G650 / G6 Fits Houston
For a Houston company with operations in West Africa or the Middle East, it turns a two-day journey into an overnight flight.
At 7,000 nautical miles published, and allowing for reserves, a Houston departure reaches Bogota, Sao Paulo, and London without a stop. The operator’s own performance figures for the day are what actually govern this, not the brochure range.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
