Gulfstream Aerospace Corp GVII-G500

ValidFAA registration status code V: Valid registration. All codesIllinois

N551MM is a Gulfstream Aerospace Corp GVII-G500, a fixed-wing airplane with more than one motor with turbofan engines. It has 9 seats. It is registered to Marquis Aviation LLC, an LLC in Hennepin, Illinois. The registration is valid: it was issued on April 27, 2026 and expires on April 30, 2033. No airworthiness certificate is on file, which is normal for drones and for aircraft still being built or tested.

Listed on the FAA charter and air-taxi certificate of Liberty Jet Management Corporation, so it can be flown for hire; the registered owner is someone else, which is usual for a managed aircraft.

The public federal record on N551MM, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to Marquis Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued April 27, 2026, expires April 30, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate

No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 72184 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N551MM was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Agusta Spa A109E (serial 11011, cancelled October 14, 2009). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N551MM. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms

These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
