Description
Introduced in 1983, the The Hawker 800 is a mid-size twin-engine corporate aircraft. It is a development of the British Aerospace BAe 125, and was assembled by Hawker Beechcraft. A total of 650 of this type of aircraft were built by the time production ceased in 2013. The 800 series has a number of modifications and changes over the 700, the most noticeable being the redesigned cockpit windscreen.
Accompanying this are a modified rear fuselage fairing, as well as a glass cockpit. The XPR upgrade adds Honeywell TFE 731-50R engines for better performance, while the new factory-engineered winglets create a more efficient wing with improved stability during all phases of flight.
After these upgrades, Hawker introduced the 900XP. True to form, the 900XP retains all of the 850’s advanced traits (fuel efficiency, aerodynamics, comfort, performance capabilities), but better.
The long-range business jet features an enhanced variation of the 850XP’s winglets, increasing hot/high-altitude and cruise performance and range. On the runway in hot/high conditions, the 900XP requires 1,800 feet less runway for a 2,000 nautical mile trip with six passengers. It can complete coast-to-coast trips, Teterboro to Seattle for example.
