In the West, specialised recruiting agencies have long since been entrusted with finding business aviation personnel. It's a normal, civilised practice which is now starting to find its way into Russia too.…

Where did Gulfstream not fly?

What's the connection between Gulfstream Aerospace corporation and various cities of the world? The answer is obvious: the aircraft made by the company fly between all five continents of the planet, connecting them with each other.

And the best thing is that Gulfstream's long line of models gives everybody a chance to choose what would suit him best. Let's take our capital city as the departure point and see where we could fly by various Gulfstream airplanes.

If your business interests are concentrated primarily in Europe, your best choice would be Gulfstream 150: an aircraft for relatively short flights but having the sufficient range to get you to any European capital. Its maximum range is 5,467 km - enough to fly as far as, say, Dubai. Another good choice would be Gulfstream 200 with the maximum range extended to 6,301 km: this one would easily bring you to the Indian capital or Israel.

If you frequently need to go to the Middle East, Japan or Africa, a perfect option is Gulfstream 350 or Gulfstream 450. G350 with the maximum range of 7,038 km can fly nonstop to Bangkok, while G450 - capable of covering up to 8,061 km - is good enough to go to Tokyo or even Boston.

Finally, if you have to cross the Atlantic on an almost monthly basis spending up to 14.5 hours in the sky, you'd do well opting for one of the company's long-range models. Gulfstream Aerospace now offers no less than three such aircraft. Gulfstream 500 can fly nonstop to, for example, Jakarta, Capetown or Los Angeles. The company's pride - Gulfstream 550 with the range of 12,501 km - covers the distance from Moscow to any city in North America, some cities of the South America and a half of Australia.

As to the latest model, Gulfstream 650, it's going to have amazing intercontinental range and speed. It will be able to fly almost 500 km farther than G550 - up to 12,964 km, and that means almost everywhere around the world.
