I'm sure the 7x is a fine a/c, but it sounds like it's having teething pains from being the"A" model. I've never heard a G-V/550 crew complain about their bird openly.....not to say it hasn't happened.
Carry on...
Flown any of the above aircraft? or just getting all these conclusions from an overheard radio conversation?
You have never heard G5 pilots complain about the APU? the brakes? screens going blank?
Maybe ask the next one your hear flying overhead?
