Hawker 1000 Private Jet Charter Information
Throughout its history, the Hawker 1000/1000A has proven to be one of the most dependable super-midsize private jets on the market. This series of jet has been popular since the 1960s, and thanks to a number of updates to the engines, airfoils and amenities over the years, it still remains a viable class competitor.
Part of the appeal of this veteran aircraft has to do with the rugged, simple systems it uses. In a world where charter jets receive constant use, the Hawker 1000 is a workhorse.
Produced by Beechcraft/Raytheon, the Hawker 1000 is based on the 800 series midsize jets. It features an elongated fuselage and a wing-forward design that allows more fuel storage. These changes, along with other cabin improvements, give the 1000 better:

- Range
- Comfort
When it comes to space, the Hawker 1000 has plenty:
Cabin length: 24.4 feet
Height: 5.8 feet

True Transcontinental Range
The Hawker 1000, which ended production in 1997, can fly 3,067 nautical miles non-stop, giving it true transcontinental east-west range. A pair of Pratt and Whitney PW 305 turbofan engines give it cruise speeds of up to 470mph. At sea level, it requires nearly 6,000 feet of runway for takeoffs.
