Hawker 800/850 XP

The Hawker 800XP is a mid-size corporate aircraft developed from the British Aerospace BAe 25 by Hawker Beechcraft. The Hawker 800A is the first of the Series 800 and had its first flight on May 26, 1983. It took nineteen years until the 500th BAe 125 airframe was sold, while in a little over five years British Aerospace was registering the 200th sale of the 800 series. In 1995 the Raytheon Aircraft Company began production of an upgraded version of the company's well-known Hawker 800 business jet. The Hawker 800XP possesses increased baggage space and user-friendly 15-inch LCD VIP touch screens. Other features include LED cabin lighting, newly-tailored cabin seats and divan, and an updated cabin management system. Thanks to its two TFE731-5BR engines offering 4,660 pounds of thrust, this aircraft is also capable of takeoffs and landings at much shorter runways, with a takeoff distance of 5,032 feet and landing distance of 3,803 feet.
