Operational context
Chartering privately between Van Nuys (KVNY) and Francfort Egelsbach (EDFE) removes connections entirely: 9,310 km non-stop in 10h36. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Francfort Egelsbach (1400 m runway). At this range a Gulfstream G650ER avoids a tech stop and preserves cabin comfort.
