GIV-SP Europe?
Hello All,
Can anyone give me some intel on GIV-SP operating in Europe under EASA regs? From my research in the market, you see very few IV-SPs operating in this part of the world. I recall hearing something about the airframe not being built to European standards and was only certified in 2008 or so? Can anyone clarify?
Thanks

Yes, I would agree the G450 built between 2004-2016 is fairly common in Europe. I was inquiring more about the GIV-SP airframe built between 1993-2003,which according to Amstat, only 9 are currently based in Western Europe.

G-IVs and Europe, long story!
G-IV F-GPAK was registered and based in Paris in 1989 for HRH Prince Karim Aga Khan and flew until 2003.
The swiss had Bruce Rappaport's and heirs', HB-IMY, registered in late 1988 and operated from Geneva until recently.
JAA certified the G-IV almost 14 years after the FAA, see below for the certification background:

"EASA/JAA Validation Application Date: 14 March 2001
EASA/JAA Certification Date: 20 October 2001*
(*Date of first TC issuance within EU MS, by Austro Control, JAA recommendation 5. October 2001)"
