G650 arrives at London City

The first large cabin Gulfstream arrived at London City this afternoon. Aircraft have to be certified to land here due to the steep 5.5 degrees glideslope. The G150 and G280 are already certified here but this is the first time a larger member of the Gulfstream family has applied for this. The aircraft in question was G650 N650GX (6001) which positioned over from Farnborough having arrived there from Savannah the evening before. Having completed the required number of approaches and landings, it departed LCY for a direct flight back to Teterboro. Your blogger was there to record this little bit of Gulfstream history.
