Click the runway figure to open the official aerodrome chart and check it. Declared distance from AISWEB (2026-09-05); where none exists, physical length is used.
Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

Curiosities and highlights
Benefits
Symmetry cockpit, 10 touchscreens e fly-by-wire
Cockpit Symmetry substitui yoke por active sidestick (que se move quando o outro piloto move o seu, feedback haptic), com 10 displays touchscreen Honeywell. Reduz fadiga em voos longos e simplifica fluxo de trabalho.
Cabine 28 janelas e altitude 4.060 ft em FL510
28 janelas oval Panoramic (a mais por área de qualquer business jet) e pressurização 10,69 psi mantém cabine equivalente a 4.060 ft em FL510, reduzindo jet lag em rotas transatlânticas.
Limitations
Range 5.300 nm fica atrás do G600 (6.500 nm)
G500 e G600 compartilham cabine e cockpit, mas o G600 tem fuselagem 1,9 m mais longa, mais combustível e range 6.500 nm vs 5.300 nm do G500. Trade-off: G500 custa USD 7-8M menos e decola em pistas mais curtas.
Curiosities
Mach 0.925, entre os mais rápidos do segmento
MMO de Mach 0.925 está entre os mais altos da aviação executiva, perdendo apenas para Cessna Citation X+ (Mach 0.935). Em rotas longas, o G500 cruza a 488 kt long-range, competitivo com Falcon 6X e Global 5500.
