Everything you wanted to know about Gulfstreams but were too afraid to ask - by Bob Holland

Following on from
my post in April about P&G becoming the 5th company to operate all 6
generations of Gulfstreams, they were followed by Lockheed Martin (6th) and now
Chevron (7th) upon delivery of G650 N1901G (6257). It's registration and paint
scheme pay homage to one of Chevron's predecessor companies. Gulf Oil (acquired
by Chevron in 1984) was founded in 1901 and its corporate colours were dark
blue and orange. Another of Chevron's predecessors was Texaco who took delivery
of G1 N1623 (010) in 1959. Thanks to FK Larkin for his assistance in
preparing this post.
