SAVANNAH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 19, 1998--Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation(NYSE:GAC - news) today announced the introduction of Gulfstream Charter Services(SM), a comprehensive program designed to facilitate charter transportation on Gulfstream aircraft.

For these operators, Gulfstream Charter Services provides easy access to Gulfstream customers who need charter services. Gulfstream Charter Services will have offices at Gulfstream's facilities in Long Beach and in Oakland, California.
