#aviation #farnboroughairport #planespotting #gulfstream #Gulfstream700 #G700 #aviationlovers #businessjet #businessjets #vip #vipjet The Gulfstream G700 received FAA type certification on 29 March 2024. T7-IRL first flew 2 months later, on 9 May and has travelled as far as Singapore, Beirut, Nice, Vancouver and Durban in the 3 months since delivery. In fact since 10th August the aircraft has been hangared at the Farnborough Gulfstream facility, so today was the first flight since 10th August. I assume the aircraft had no passengers on board as it taxied straight from the Gulfstream East Apron, taking the short 20 minute hop to Southampton, where it was then due to continue to Olbia and Bern. Listen to the rumble of the 2 Rolls Royce Pearl 700 engines - (specially designed for this aircraft), as they spool up. Love that sound! Enjoy this short film - back to "proper" spotting again now the Farnborough Airshow paraphernalia has all been dismantled, giving clearer runway views again! Best wishes, Steve
