Extra safety rules for GVII-G400 speed system
If you fly on a Gulfstream GVII-G400 airplane, the FAA requires extra safety standards for the airplane's high-speed protection system so it is as safe as other transport-category airplanes. The FAA issued these "special conditions" because existing rules did not adequately cover this new design feature, and the special conditions add safety requirements without adding costs or delays.
