This military looking Gulf of the manufacturer was displayed at Le Bourget. The G-III (SRA-1) became N333GA with Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. from August 1984. It carried false serial 84-0420 in September 1984 as a demonstration how a Gulf looks for the USAF. The Gulf then became N47449 (as pictured) in that same month and was sold to the Indian Air Force in September 1987, first registered as VK-ENR and then serialled as K2960. The aircraft is still operational within the IAF. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
