Round-up 25/7

Another fairly quiet week. The 3 G5s operated by the Government of Kuwait have been cancelled to the US as follows. 9K-AJD (560) became N55BM, AJE (569) to N27KB and AJF (573) to N62FF. These were originally delivered between November 1999 and February 2000. These have now been replaced by 4 G650s. The address shown on the register for these is for STA Jets at Orange County airport (KSNA). Will be interesting to see if there is any more life left in these. G450 N450ME (4361) flew Savannah-Bradley-Savannah yesterday so another delivery closer to the end of the line. The 2nd G550 for the Polish Air Force is expected in Warsaw at the weekend.

Kuwait G650 fleet grows

G650 N689GA (6189) was yesterday cancelled from the US register as exported to Kuwait. This will become 9K-GGD and the 4th G650 to  be operated by the State of Kuwait. This is currently the largest fleet of the type anywhere in the world.
