Hawker 800 Aircraft 1980s

Hawker business jets, later produced under Beechcraft / Hawker Beechcraft.

1980s heavy jets include Gulfstream III/IV (early), Hawker 800 (early), Falcon 900 (early), Challenger 600/601. Rolls-Royce Tay, BR710 (predecessors) and TFE731 engines from this era are proven; airframes are heavily mandate-upgraded by now. Two-crew operations standard; recurrent training requirements unchanged from modern equivalents. Pre-buy must include thorough mandate- compliance audit and engine-program enrollment verification.

The Hawker 800 series — Hawker 800 (1983-1995), 800XP (1995-2005), 850XP (2005-2007), and 900XP (2007-2013) — defined the mid-size business jet segment for three decades. Twin Honeywell TFE731 engines (variants -5R through -50R across the production run), stand-up mid-size cabin seating 8 passengers comfortably, ~440 kt cruise, transatlantic range from 2,500 to 2,850 nm depending on variant. The 800-series airframe traces lineage to the original de Havilland DH.125 (1962); the modern 800XP/850XP/900XP variants represent the refined evolution of the design. With over 1,000 produced across the series, the Hawker 800 family has the largest mid-size business-jet used fleet and the most comprehensive support network. The 900XP specifically represents the final and most refined variant — Honeywell TFE731-50R engines, Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics, winglets, and the most modern systems Hawker produced.

Buying a Used Hawker 800

Buying a Hawker 800 comes down to a focused pre-purchase checklist — here is what matters most on this model:

What to check before buying

  • 🚨 Variant identification — Hawker 800 (1983-1995), 800XP (1995-2005), 850XP (2005-2007), 900XP (2007-2013). Each represents progressive performance, equipment, and pricing differentials.
  • Honeywell TFE731 engine program enrollment (MSP) — dominant value variable; transferable program coverage essential for resale.
  • Engine variant — TFE731-5R/5BR/5R (early-mid 800XP), TFE731-50R (900XP); each has specific hot section inspection cycles and overhaul economics.
  • Avionics generation — Honeywell Primus 1000 (most 800XP), Honeywell Primus EPIC (Hawker 4000), Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 (900XP). Software revision currency matters.
  • Winglets — 850XP added winglets (improved range, climb performance); 900XP also has them. Verify installation.
  • Mandate compliance — ADS-B Out, FANS, RVSM. Older 800/800XP often need substantial mandate investment; verify status pre-buy carefully.
  • Hot section inspection (HSI) status — TFE731 HSI cycles are roughly every 2,500-3,000 hours; verify current status both engines.
  • Cabin refurb age — Hawker mid-size cabins age well but refurbishment investment varies; verify.
  • Two-crew operations standard — type rating required; insurance typically requires recurrent simulator training (FlightSafety, CAE).

Which 800-series? Hawker 900XP is the best of the legacy line — modern Pro Line 21 avionics, TFE731-50R engines, winglets. Hawker 850XP offers winglets and TFE731-5BR engines at materially lower acquisition cost. Hawker 800XP is the value-mid-market with the largest used fleet. The original Hawker 800 (1983-1995) is the value-entry with potentially substantial mandate-upgrade investment required.
