I may be mistaken, but on NetJets, the striping does not go all the way around the nose of the aircraft.

I’ve seen slight variations within type (ie G-IV) and a few such as the above example which don’t even come close. They may have a few older planes around or some which may have been acquired other than new. ---

I’ve noticed on many of the “QS” planes, they have similar stripping on them, but not necessarily the same: G-IV with full stripes [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/flightaware/original/3X/f/0/f043d84a1f23af421559c10d3665f1c576831547.jpeg) ](https://www.airport-data.com/images/aircraft/000/014/014887.jpg) G-IV without full stripes [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/flightaware/original/3X/8/4/84caaf972392c133563611a94749f67564008365.jpeg) ](https://www.airport-data.com/images/aircraft/000/039/039668.jpg) ---
