A midsize jet with a cabin you can stand in, flown by a wide spread of operators, and on our board as likely to appear between Athens and Tel Aviv as between Cleveland and Nantucket.
Checking availability on this type...
The 800XP is one of the better spread types we track, with no operator dominating it and no corridor either. Athens to Tel Aviv, Cleveland to Nantucket, and the odd Chicago reposition that starts and ends at different fields in the same city have each come round more than once. Europe, the eastern Mediterranean and the American midwest and northeast all feature.
Unlike most midsize and larger types here, a noticeable minority of 800XP legs arrive with the operator's figure attached. The record block above gives the share and, where enough legs allow, the median. Notice is short to moderate; the aircraft neither lingers nor vanishes.
The 800XP is the mid 1990s development of the British Aerospace 125, a design that first flew in 1962 and was still being built in Wichita fifty years later. The 850XP added winglets in 2006 and the 900XP new engines in 2008; operators list all three by name and we keep them apart. Specification: Hawker 800XP, GlobalAir.
The 800XP is the mid 1990s development of the British Aerospace 125, a design that first flew in 1962 and was built in Britain and then Kansas for over fifty years. TFE731-5BR engines gave the XP more range and better hot and high performance than the 800, and the stand up cabin, at six feet wide, remains one of the roomiest in the midsize class. Thousands of 125 family aircraft were built and a great many 800XPs fly charter on both sides of the Atlantic.
