N218PJ

This entry covers airframe N218PJ, a British Aerospace-built BAe 125 Series 800A (Hawker 800A) completed in 1988 with manufacturer serial number NA0426. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by the corporation SOANY STEAM INC of Cheyenne, WY, US; the registration record and ownership indicate corporate operation from that home base. The airframe has an assessed market value of $1,600,000 and is noted as having a refurbished beige leather interior completed in 2010. Registration actions list the airframe under corporate ownership in Cheyenne, reflecting its operator/home-base linkage and valuation for resale or corporate fleet accounting.

The cabin of this specific airframe follows an executive layout typically accommodating 7–8 passengers with a forward galley and aft lavatory; the interior is finished in beige leather and was refurbished in 2010 as listed. The flightdeck is equipped with Honeywell Primus II / SPZ-800 style avionics, with Primus II components described for navigation, communication, and flight management functions. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include corporate and private transport over medium to long ranges up to 2,390 nm, operating from its corporate base in Cheyenne for regional and transcontinental trips at cruise speeds around 430 kts. Maintenance considerations reflect TFE731-series engine support and aging-airframe inspections consistent with a 1988 build.

The BAe 125 Series 800A (Hawker 800A) occupies the mid-size business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability, a pressurized cabin, and twin TFE731 turbofans producing about 4,300 lbf each. Competing models in its era and used market include late-model light-to-mid-size business jets offering similar range and cabin size; demand is typically from corporate buyers, charter operators, and owner-operators seeking a balance of range, cabin comfort, and acquisition cost. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe emphasize avionics legacy support for Honeywell Primus II systems, availability of TFE731 overhauls, and market valuation consistent with the listed $1,600,000 price level.
