Hawker 800XP
Aging but everywhere: the value play of the midsize charter market.
What you are paying for
The Hawker 800 series is long out of production, but hundreds still fly charter, and that is the play: a famously robust wing, a bottomless parts pool, and capital costs that have collapsed to a fraction of new-build money. The trade is speed. A 402-knot cruise concedes half an hour to modern iron on longer legs.

Typical pre-owned asks run EST $3.5M–$5.5M. Owning a Hawker 800XP and flying it 200 hours a year models out to roughly $1.59M–$2.10M per year all-in: crew, hangar, insurance, maintenance programs, and depreciation included.
