N548LR

This entry covers airframe N548LR, a 1995-built Hawker 1000 (BAe 125-1000) carrying serial number 259048. The aircraft was manufactured by Raytheon Corporate Jets Inc and is registered in the United States; it is owned by Aviation Dynamics LLC, a Portland, Maine–based corporate entity. As a single-airframe summary, records show the type-certificated interior and registry reflect executive use with U.S. registration actions consistent with corporate operation from its Portland, ME address. Publicly supplied condition and valuation details are not published for this specific airframe.

The cabin of N548LR conforms to a typical executive layout for the Hawker 1000 series, commonly fitted for 8–10 passengers in an executive configuration while being certificated for up to 17 seats for higher-density operations. Operated from Portland, ME by its corporate owner, the airplane is suited to transcontinental and regional executive missions made possible by a 3,442 nm range and high-speed cruise of 468 kts, enabling non-stop sectors that span much of North America. Avionics fit and specific onboard amenities for this airframe are not published; maintenance considerations follow the Hawker 1000 fleet norms for twin-PW305 powerplants and higher-utilization corporate operations.

The Hawker 1000 (BAe 125-1000) family occupies the midsize, long-range corporate jet niche, offering higher cruise speeds and cabin comfort compared with light jets while remaining more compact than large-cabin intercontinental types. With twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305 series engines delivering 5,220 lbf each and a service ceiling of 43,000 ft, the model competes with contemporaries in the midsize segment for owner-operators and charter fleets seeking transcontinental capability. Buyer and charter demand typically emphasizes cabin flexibility (executive 8–10 versus certificated 17-seat layouts), established maintenance pathways for PW305 engines, and resale considerations tied to age—this airframe being a 1995 build within that market context.
