G700 Global Active Fleet Reaches 58 Aircraft Quarter-Deduped in Q1 2026 (Surpassing Q4's 55) but Monthly Active Count Retreats From Peak of 41 to 33 — Delivery Cadence Falls From Q3's Burst Rate (+4/Month) Back to Steady (+2/Quarter); New Registrations Include First San Marino T7- Prefix
●Safran
Analysis
G700 monthly active fleet peaked at 41 aircraft in December 2025, then retreated month by month through Q1 2026 to 35 → 34 → 33. But quarter-deduped total reached 58 vs. Q4's 55, indicating the fleet is still expanding while single-month flight-participation rates fluctuate. Q1 2026 added only 2 new registrations (T7-NYDJ and N2147), a major slowdown vs. the 11-aircraft burst in Q3 2025. T7-NYDJ uses the San Marino registration prefix — signaling G700's entry into the European offshore-registration market. Safran HEHF technology targets supporting ~80 nacelle sets in 2026, providing capacity headroom for full-year deliveries, but current quarterly addition pace suggests delivery cadence has entered a plateau rather than continuing acceleration. Confidence ★★★.
