Gulfstream G-500

from $52.99

Did you know? NASA used a Gulfstream aircraft to train pilots for the space shuttle, and in order to match the descent rate and drag profile of the real Shuttle at 37,000 feet, the main landing gear was lowered and engine thrust was reversed. Its flaps could deflect upwards to decrease lift as well as downwards to increase lift.
