Prime You Aviation (São Paulo Congonhas) ordered its first G700, becoming the first charter operator of the type in Brazil. The ultra-long-range jet, contracted directly from Gulfstream Aerospace, is scheduled for delivery later this year.

The manufacturer flew its testbed, N706GD (msn 87006) from Savannah International to São Roque Sao Paulo Catarina on June 9, 2024, ahead of the Catarina Air Show, an executive aviation event, where the news was announced.

The aircraft remains registered as experimental to the manufacturer, the FAA records show, and is not the unit that will be delivered to the operator. Prime You plans to offer the G700 under a fractional ownership programme divided into up to three shares, with usage limited to 110 days per year for each share. The G700 was certified in the United States in late March 2024 and is still awaiting certification in Brazil.

Specialising in fractional ownership, Prime You also holds an RBAC 135 certificate for on-demand air taxi operations, covering two Phenom 300s and an AW109 helicopter. In addition, the company operates a Learjet 60, a Phenom 100, a third Phenom 300, a Robinson R66, a Eurocopter AS350, and a Eurocopter EC155, all of which are not available for charter.
