This beautiful Gulfstream II was seized by the Ecuadorian Air Force long time ago and it started flying for the air force after several years stored at Latacunga. It was used as VIP aircraft for the General Commander of the Air Force. But, the right emergency exit window broke in mid air and it affected the engine too, even though we won't see this plane flying again for some time, luckily the engine and the rest of the parts had warranty so the plane is scheduled to have maintenance at any time. Former N689JE, N87GS, N437H, N929GV & N301EC.
