The Hawker 4000, also known as the Horizon, is a super-midsize business jet designed by Hawker Beechcraft. It was created to offer the perfect balance of speed, range, and comfort, catering to corporate and private aviation needs. First introduced in 2008, the Hawker 4000 incorporates advanced composite materials and cutting-edge technology, making it one of the most innovative jets in its class at the time. The Hawker 4000 is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308A turbofan engines, each producing 6,900 pounds of thrust. This power enables a maximum cruise speed of 470 knots (541 mph) and a range of 3,280 nautical miles, allowing non-stop flights between cities like New York and London or Los Angeles and Honolulu. With a service ceiling of 45,000 feet, the aircraft is capable of avoiding most weather and traffic for efficient and comfortable travel. The cabin of the Hawker 4000 is spacious and luxurious, featuring a stand-up height of 6 feet and seating for up to 10 passengers in a variety of configurations. The flat-floor design and wide cabin provide ample space for work, relaxation, or meetings. Amenities include fully adjustable executive seating, a private lavatory, and an integrated galley for in-flight meals. Advanced soundproofing ensures a quiet and serene environment. In the cockpit, the Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion avionics suite enhances pilot efficiency and safety. The system includes large high-resolution displays, synthetic vision, and integrated flight planning, offering superior situational awareness. The Hawker 4000 also features modern safety systems, such as enhanced navigation and traffic collision avoidance. As of Q2 2024, the list price of the Hawker 4000 is $22,000,000.

- Is the Hawker 4000 a safe aircraft to charter?
