The Hawker 1000A traces its impressive lineage to a 1961 aircraft design study by storied British aircraft manufacturer de Havilland, which called for an innovative small business jet able to balance intercontinental range capabilities of larger aircraft with ample comfort and room for a mid-size jet. That aircraft came to market in 1964 as the DH.125 Jet Dragon, and each successive model has further optimized this mission, resulting in the highly-capable Hawker 1000A. The largest version of the 125 aircraft family is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305 turbofans with full authority digital engine control (FADEC) providing 5,255 pounds of thrust apiece each on takeoff. These highly-efficient powerplants also provide a maximum cruising range of nearly 3,100 nautical miles, all with an impressively low noise footprint.
