When Gulfstream first decided to pursue this project in the early 1990s, it was a relatively small, privately held company, and the Gulfstream V carried with it significant financial risks.
Gulfstream had been aggressively studying applications of winglets in the late 1970s (contemporary with Lear activities) and incorporated winglets in its line of business jet transports including the Gulfstream III, Gulfstream IV, and Gulfstream V. The performance of the Gulfstream V has been spectacular.
The Gulfstream V was recognized as one of the `Ten Most Memorable Flights in 1997' by the National Aeronautic Association on the flight from Washington, D.C. to Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Gulfstream’s insurance company sued the rider’s employer, trainer Kessinger, for reimbursement under a stall agreement in which Kessinger agreed to reimburse the track for any claims arising out of his activities at the track.

The jury found Gulfstream was not exclusively negligent for Parisel's injury, and apportioned the negligence equally between Gulfstream and Kessinger.

Since Gulfstream made no attempt to reign in costs--or lower prices--Canadair continued to chip away at Gulfstream's market share even after the introduction of the G IV in 1985 restored Gulfstream's lead in performance.
