Super-midsize jet aircraft charter

The Hawker 1000 is the largest member of the Hawker 800 series of business jets. Its cabin is three feet longer than the Hawker 800 and features a more powerful engine.

The Hawker 4000 was originally named the Hawker Horizon. The 4000 features a composite carbon-fiber skin which saves weight and increases cabin volume. The 4000 was the last of the Hawker business jets before production ceased in 2013.

The Challenger 300 was Bombardier's entry into the super mid-sized aircraft market. It seats 8 in a double-club configuration. The aircraft is smaller than the Challenger 600 series but with transcontinental range.

The Challenger 350 is an upgrade to the successful Challenger 300. Updates include a new interior, larger cabin windows, new engines producing roughly 500 additional pounds of thrust, and further advanced flight deck. A new wing incorporates that allow for a higher maximum takeoff weight and increased range of 3,200 nm.

The Citation Latitude is a new super mid-size jet with a stand up cabin, the widest in the Citation line. The aircraft has an endurance of between 5-6 hours making it well suited for trans-continental flight.

The Sovereign’s cabin is based on that of the Citation X. The aircraft is designed for transcontinental flight.

The Sovereign+, introduced in 2012, extends the aircraft’s range by approximately 150 NM with the installation of winglets and newer engines. The Sovereign+ is also equipped with new cockpit technology.

Long recognized as the fastest business jet in the world, the Citation X is a unique super-midsize jet. The engines on the “Citation Ten” produce 6,000 pounds of thrust each and its wing has a sweep of 37° making it a real high-performer and a standout amongst most private jets. Conditions permitting, the high-speed characteristics of this jet enable the Citation X to complete a typical North American trans-continental flight up to an hour faster than others in its class. Inside, the cabin of the Citation X and the newer Citation Sovereign are actually very similar with a twin double-club seating arrangement.

The Citation X+, is an upgrade to the Citation X. Changes include a new technology flight deck, new engines that produce even more power but consume less fuel, a 15 inch cabin extension, increased Maximum Takeoff Weight and aerodynamic winglets to improve flying performance.

Developed as a long range, intercontinental version of the Falcon 20, a three engine design was adopted for airline standards of safety. Many years later a re-engined version of the Falcon 50 became the Falcon 50EX. The Falcon 50 remains a popular continental and inter-continental jet with a taller and wider cabin than many other aircraft in its class.

The Legacy 450 fuselage is four feet shorter than the Legacy 500. It carries 4 passengers over 2,900 nm and can accommodate up to 9 passengers.

The Legacy 500 marked Embraer’s entry into the super-midsize business jet market. The Legacy 500 typically carries 4 passengers over 3,125 nm with room for up to 12. The recently announced Embraer Praetor 500/600 are variants of the Legacy 450 and 500, respectively, with more range.

Initially dubbed the Astra Galaxy prior to General Dynamics acquisition of IAI, the G200 marked Gulfstream's entry into the super-midsize aircraft market. Its cabin comfortably seats up to nine passengers and is equipped with a forward galley and aft lavatory. By using a step-down aisle the cabin has 6.3 feet of headroom. It has nonstop trans Atlantic and one-stop trans Pacific range.

Designed by Gulfstream and built by IAI, the G280, known initially as the G250, is a replacement for the G200. IAI and Gulfstream removed the G200’s aft-fuselage fuel tank enabling a bigger cabin and access to the aft baggage from in flight. The G280 seats 8-10 passengers.
