Development & Background
The Hawker 800/800XP is one of the most reliable and popular midsize private jets ever produced, offering the perfect balance of range, comfort, and operating efficiency. With seating for up to 8 passengers, a spacious stand-up cabin, and transcontinental capabilities, the Hawker 800XP remains a top choice for executives and families alike.
Favored by corporate flight departments and private charter clients worldwide, the Hawker 800 series has built a reputation for performance and dependability. Celebrities, CEOs, and professional athletes frequently select this aircraft for coast-to-coast U.S. travel and shorter international flights.
The Hawker 800XP, introduced in the 1980s, was a joint effort under Raytheon and Hawker Beechcraft. After being certified by the FAA and CAA, more than 650 Hawker 800/800XP jets were delivered worldwide, due to its blend of performance, comfort, and cost efficiency, making it a mainstay of private aviation in the North American and European charter markets.
"The Hawker 800XP is an outstanding aircraft for its class. It climbs smoothly, cruises efficiently, and has excellent handling. Pilots love its reliability, and passengers consistently enjoy the cabin comfort."
"We used a Hawker 800XP for a family trip from Los Angeles to Chicago. The cabin was quiet, roomy, and perfect for both kids and adults. It gave us a first-class experience without the ultra-long-range price tag."
