The Astra was built to improve on the design of the Westwind. Several design improvements were introduced over the years culminating with the introduction of the Astra SPX which was later names the Gulfstream G100 following the acquisition of Galaxy Aerospace by Gulfstream. With a cabin height of 5’8” and certified for up to nine passengers, the Astra is a great aircraft choice for travelers who want a little more head room while maintaining a mid-size jet hourly rate.
