Yes but it is a 1996? I saw it in internet.
The problem i travel with my family. 1996 not for me. Should be 2000 and upwards.
When I speak about a 604 or g200 I'm speaking 2005/2006 models.
My favorite is the G4 sp or g400 but everyone told me gulfstream are terrible expensive to maintain.
Btw are really important the winglets in the falcons so that to pay 800k for the modification? I'm mean they look nice, but I've told the don't change anything in terms of performance.

Can you post your contact details? I have airplanes matching your requirements.

@Bizjetlover...

"6 million"

"Total costs on a Buenos Aires miami Buenos Aires no more than 50k"


With those numbers don't even think Global Express or G5/550 way too expensive.

A return flight like you mention above on the big planes would be double your budget.

I don't think you could get a 605 with a 6 million dollar budget but I could be wrong.

I remember that when we operated a GIV SP it would burn at least 25% more gas than the 604 and its operating cost were overall higher but I don't have the details to this.

Also remember that both the 604 and GIV series aircraft are getting old and may need expensive maintenance and that their avionics will need to be extensively upgraded in the future to meet the new norms (CPDLC, ADSB and so on). This would also apply to Falcon 2000s.

If you could find a 605 with the latest avionics, perhaps that could be a good aircraft for you.

Buenas tardes Bizjetlover,

I just read your post! Quite interesting!

I know people that sell airplanes, some speak spanish and all of them are very helpful.

If you need help to find the right airplane, send me a message and I will help you out!

The way I look at it, the more planes you have to choose from the better.

Safe flights!

WOW. Happy not to work with an owner that can "sort of" afford a private jet - yet searches for perfection - and likely don't have a freaking clue about the cost of operating one... Guess that's why I stick with G650 owners.

Chillax, Klimax, I doubt he actually owns anything or can afford anything above a Hasegawa kit.

If he is serious about his budget etc., I'd recommend to keep a medium size jet for South Americann/regional operations, but use First Class on the airlines to travel to the US. It will be cheaper and quicker in the end.

I am currently buying a G200 for a client and there are some deals to be had in that mid 2000 range. Early SN (2000,2001) should go in the high $2s- low $3s. Most of the inventory is at the lower end of the market or towards newer models. I know of at least 2 2005s and newer that can be had in the mid $4Ms. Shoot me a PM if you would like me to share some more detailed market intel with you.

The G200 is a great aircraft for the price at the moment.
