N704FU

This airframe, registered as N704FU, is a 1983-built Hawker Siddeley HS.125 Series 700A (BAe 125-700A) with manufacturer serial number 257198. The aircraft was produced by British Aerospace / Hawker Siddeley and is recorded in US civil registration. Ownership is held by the corporate trustee K&A Advisors LLC Trustee, located in Wilmington, DE, US; no additional ownership transfers or charter operator history are provided in the supplied data. The airframe’s factory designation and US registration identify it as a corporate-style business jet maintained to typical regulatory standards for fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft.

The cabin on this Series 700A airframe is noted as a typical corporate executive layout, commonly arranged with 8–10 executive seats despite factory/line seating listed as 15, reflecting typical operator customization for business missions. Avionics on the type are documented with a Collins avionics suite consistent with original Series 700A fitment noted in type references, supporting typical corporate navigation, communication and flight-management tasks for transcontinental and regional missions. With a cruise speed of 424 kts and a range of 2,300 nm, operations for this specific aircraft would typically include medium- to long-range executive transport, positioning flights and corporate shuttle duties out of its operator’s home base in Wilmington, Delaware. Maintenance considerations follow the Series 700A requirements for twin-engine Honeywell TFE731 powerplants and airframe inspections commensurate with a 1983-built platform.

The Hawker Siddeley HS.125 Series 700A (BAe 125-700A) occupies a mid-size business-jet niche offering transcontinental capability, relatively high cruise speed and a service ceiling to 41,000 ft. Competitors in its era and market segment include other mid-size executive jets equipped with turbofan engines and Collins-class avionics suites. Buyer and charter demand for a 1983 Series 700A typically hinges on condition, avionics upgrades and engine times; resale and maintenance considerations focus on lifecycle status of Honeywell TFE731 series engines and the desirability of the existing Collins fitment versus modern avionics retrofits.
