WOW that G650 looks amazing and at 51,000 cruise at M.90 7,000 NM range

what is the interesting stat.
- cabin alt. max 4,850 at FL510
- cabin alt. max 2,900 at FL410

Will be amazing to see more of this at NBAA in Orlando this year... Nice perk to instruct at a flight school on the field where the static display is

They claim to be the fastest, but doesn't the Citation X top out at .92?

Also, I think it's funny the photoshopped pic on the "Range" page has this bird taking off or landing on a taxiway at KSAV. Specifically, the one that leads to the Gulfstram ramp at the approach end of 18. Oopsie!

I saw they are shooting for 9.22, that would make it about 3 kts faster than the X.
