It details the evolution of the aircraft from the original turboprop Gulfstream I (first flown in 1958) to its jet-powered successors, which became the elite choice for global business aviation. The work chronicles every one of the 800-plus Gulfstreams built up to its publication date, providing a meticulous record of individual aircraft. It is illustrated with b&w photographs, many of which were previously unpublished at the time of its release. Amongst aviation enthusiasts and historians, it is regarded as a meticulously researched and authoritative work on the subject. Primary Source: The book's detailed logging of specific aircraft builds and its 20-year research base make it a primary reference for tracking the early fleet history of the Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation. It provides context for how Gulfstream transitioned from a division of Grumman (famous for WWII military aircraft) to a premier manufacturer of corporate jets.
