N361LA

This entry covers airframe N361LA, a 2001-built Hawker 800XP (serial 258562) manufactured by Raytheon Aircraft Company. The airframe is registered in the US and is owned by Best Friends Air LLC, an LLC based in Kerrville, TX, US; registry records list that entity as the current owner. Notable registry actions beyond the current US registration are not published. Valuation and public condition reports for this specific airframe are not published.

The cabin of N361LA is fitted in a typical eight-place executive double-club layout with a forward galley and an enclosed lavatory, configured for executive transport and charter-style missions. Avionics are listed as Honeywell SPZ-800 / common Collins/ProLine variants (operator-dependent), indicating the avionics suite may vary with operator-specific installations and upgrades. With an NBAA IFR range of approximately 2,540 nm and a cruise speed near 430 kts, this airframe is suited to cross-country business missions and regional international hops from its home base area in Texas. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow standard Hawker 800XP practices tied to the Honeywell TFE731 series engines and airframe age; specific maintenance status and logbook entries for this tail are not published.

The Hawker 800XP sits in the mid-size cabin category and, as exemplified by N361LA, offers a balance of transcontinental range and cabin comfort for up to eight passengers. Competing models in the same performance niche include late-model midsize jets from manufacturers such as Bombardier and Gulfstream, while buyer and charter demand typically favors airframes with updated avionics and well-documented maintenance histories. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are driven by engine model commonality (Honeywell TFE731-5BR), avionics variability (Honeywell SPZ-800 / common Collins/ProLine variants (operator-dependent)), and the airframe’s 2001 build year.
