Now it turns out that Nike bought the Gulfstream used...it is three years
old and probably subject to the ADs. None of the "maiden flight" screamers
noted this. The lady Gulfstream V instructor who took part on a couple of
channels brought up factory flights and the delivery flight when "maiden"
was mentioned, so she didn't know either.

My guess is that this was "maiden flight" after delivery or for the
customer. I'm sure the factory or perhaps the dealer has flown it. Of
course I'm just guessing.
