John Gandel is one of Australia's wealthiest people, built on retail property. Gandel Group's anchor asset is Chadstone Shopping Centre in south-east Melbourne — the largest shopping centre in the southern hemisphere — held in partnership with Vicinity Centres. The family also runs the Gandel Foundation, among the larger private philanthropic funds in Australia. Born 1934; the group is increasingly run with his children and wife Pauline.
VH-TGG is a Bombardier Global 7500, Mode S hex 7C610E. Registration is to The Gandel Group itself rather than a charter intermediary, which makes the attribution here unusually direct for a non-US tail — the tail letters read as the company initials.
Base is Essendon Fields, Melbourne's business-aviation field, rather than Tullamarine.
