Nope, too new...2003, and little demand for bizjet models.

Mincraft is doing a GIII in 1/48th but thats it for new mainstream bizjets.

the older Gulfstream IV is available as a welsh models vacform for about £32 iirc.

Is this what you're looking for?

It looks a bit like it.

There's so many things to make with 1/72 scale bizjet models... and  Gulfstreams look so good. And Falcon 900. And Learjets.

French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Minicraft has a 1/48 (yes, 1/48) G-III in the planning stages.  Why, I have no clue.  But they do.  They're going to lose their shirts on a 1/48 large biz jet.  Doing them in 1/72 makes far more sense, but c'est la vie.

Yeah, I've got a project in mind that needs a Bombardier Global Express.  You'd think with the Raytheon Sentinel entering service that one would be coming along, you could create both from the same mould.

I could cope with the Candair Challenger (Revell do one in 1/144) or CRJ200 (Welsh Models do some in both 1/144 & 1/72) but it'd be easier with the Global Express & since I'm in no hurry I'm happy to wait, if someone ever actually does bring one out!
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I've been dreaming for a couple of good Bizjet kits to be made for a couple of years.
The GIV and V along w/ the CitationX and the Challenger in 1/48 would be great.

You can get a 1/100 scale snap together desk top model of the Global Express from Modelcraft.  I've got one but it wasn't until I got it I found it was 1/100 scale.

Archie, I've spotted in SAMI that Dujin are releasing a resin 1/72 Falcon 10.  Not the 900 your after, but might be close enough, I'm guessing it's for your planned Carreidas 160?

They're also doing a resin Arsenal VG.90 you might be interested in.
