A Hawker Hawker 800SP costs approximately $1.74m (€1.61m) to $2.08m (€1.92m) to buy at 1995 market values, and about $711k (€659k) a year to own flying 80 hours, roughly $8,892 (€8,233) per flight hour all-in. It seats 10, cruises at 429 kt (494 mph) and has a published range of 2,496 nm (4,623 km), needing about 4,265 ft (1,300 m) of runway.

The ownership trade-off

The Hawker 800SP combines 10-seat jet capability with about 2,496 NM reported range and about 429 kt reported cruise, while payload, runway and operating-cost figures remain indicative and should be verified for the specific aircraft before making a decision.

Cost picture at different usage

Indicative cash costs at 1995 market values, before financing, depreciation and tax. The fixed base is the same whether the aircraft flies or not, so the effective hourly cost falls as utilisation rises.

Annual useAnnual cash costEffective cost / hFive-year cash outlay
40 h / year$555k (€514k)$13,873 (€12,845)$4.66m (€4.32m)

What the estimate covers

Every figure above is built from a $194k (€180k) fixed annual base, covering hangarage, insurance, scheduled maintenance reserves and recurring airworthiness costs, plus $3,910 (€3,620) per hour flown for fuel, reserves and consumables. It is a planning model for comparing aircraft and testing utilisation, not a maintenance programme quote, insurance quote or pre-buy assessment.

Older examples add calendar-driven maintenance: a 2011-built airframe is estimated at $556k (€515k) per year at 80 hours. Airframe and engine time, maintenance and damage history, avionics, equipment, geography and tax treatment move a real transaction further than the model year does, so price the aircraft in front of you, not the model. A cheaper example carrying deferred maintenance can be the more expensive aircraft once the first annual inspection is complete.

Hawker Hawker 800SP cost guide answers the same figures as standalone purchase and ownership questions, and the ownership cost calculator lets you replace these assumptions with your own hours and fixed costs.

Where it fits well

  • 429 kt (494 mph) cruise supports fast regional travel.
  • 2,496 nm (4,623 km) reported range is retained for profile context, but PlaneFit does not use it for mission ranking yet.
  • 1,587 lb (720 kg) reported payload proxy and 10 seats define the cabin context pending source-level normalization.

Limitations to price honestly

  • The Hawker 800SP combines 10-seat jet capability with about 2,496 NM reported range and about 429 kt reported cruise, while payload, runway and operating-cost figures remain indicative and should be verified for the specific aircraft before making a decision.
  • $194k (€180k) fixed annual planning base before flying a single hour.
  • Approximate 4,265 ft (1,300 m) take-off requirement must be checked against runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading.

Recommended missions

  • Family and small-group touring with a weight-and-balance check for every trip.
  • Longer regional missions, with reserves and payload reducing brochure range.
  • Time-sensitive business travel where dispatch reliability justifies the cost.

What you need to be qualified to fly a Hawker Hawker 800SP

On top of a pilot certificate, this aircraft obliges the person flying it to hold the following. Each one is time and money before the first trip, and insurers usually attach their own minimums on top.

  • Type rating. This aircraft is turbojet-powered, so 14 CFR 61.31(a) requires a type rating for the specific type regardless of weight. Expect a formal initial course at a training provider and recurrent training every year, both of which insurers normally make a condition of cover.

US requirements under 14 CFR 61.31, stated for orientation and not as advice. PlaneFit is not an aviation authority or a training organisation. Other authorities set different rules, and the current regulation and your instructor are what govern.

Common questions about the Hawker Hawker 800SP

How much does a Hawker Hawker 800SP cost?

An indicative 1995 market price for a Hawker Hawker 800SP is $1.74m (€1.61m) to $2.08m (€1.92m). This is a planning estimate normalised across the market, not a quote for a specific airframe. Condition, engine time remaining, avionics and damage history move the real number more than the model year does.

What does a Hawker Hawker 800SP cost per hour to operate?

Flying 80 hours a year, a Hawker Hawker 800SP works out at roughly $711k (€659k) annually, which is about $8,892 (€8,233) per flight hour all-in once fixed costs are spread across those hours. The direct cost per hour alone, covering fuel, reserves and consumables, is about $3,910 (€3,620).

How far can a Hawker Hawker 800SP fly?

Reported range is 2,496 nm (4,623 km). PlaneFit does not yet use this figure for mission ranking on this model.

What do you need to be qualified to fly a Hawker Hawker 800SP?

Beyond a pilot certificate, a Hawker Hawker 800SP requires type rating. This aircraft is turbojet-powered, so 14 CFR 61.31(a) requires a type rating for the specific type regardless of weight. Expect a formal initial course at a training provider and recurrent training every year, both of which insurers normally make a condition of cover. These are US requirements and are stated for orientation; confirm them against the current regulation and an instructor.

What runway does a Hawker Hawker 800SP need?

Plan on approximately 4,265 ft (1,300 m) for take-off. Check this against the actual runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading, all of which extend the requirement.
