N28ZF

This entry describes airframe N28ZF, a British Aerospace-built business jet completed in 1990 with manufacturer serial NA0458 (C/N 258195). The airframe is recorded as owned by CORE PROJECTS INC of Fresno, CA, US, and is registered in the United States under FAA records. The certificate lists a 14-seat cabin and the aircraft carries the market valuation of $675,000 in current records. Notable registry details include the FAA seating designation and the corporate ownership based in Fresno, which define its operator/home base for regulatory and operational purposes.

The FAA registration for this airframe specifies a 14-seat cabin configuration; typical executive refits for the BAe 125 Series 800A family commonly provide 6–8 passenger layouts depending on interior refit choices. With a maximum cruise of 429 knots and an approximate range of 2,570 nautical miles, the aircraft is suited to medium- to long-range point-to-point executive transport missions out of its Fresno base. Maintenance and operational planning for this specific airframe centers on twin Garrett TFE731-series turbofan support, and its certified ceiling of 41,000 feet allows for efficient high-altitude cruise profiles on transregional sectors.

The airframe belongs to the British Aerospace BAe 125 Series 800A (marketed in many contexts as the Hawker 800A) family, a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet class produced by British Aerospace. With moderate operating speed and intercontinental-capable range for its era, the model occupies a performance niche between light and larger midsize business jets. The twin Garrett TFE731-series engines are a common support advantage, but the noted market valuation of $675,000 for this 1990 airframe highlights the mature secondary market and the importance of maintenance history and interior refit condition for prospective buyers or charter operators.
