N810KB

This airframe, N810KB, is a 1981-built Hawker Siddeley HS-125-700A with manufacturer's serial 257118. The jet is recorded as owned by ORANGE SKIES LLC (a corporation) based in New Carrollton, Maryland, United States, and is registered in the United States. Registry and listing notes emphasize a corporate ownership model and multiple listings that report refreshed interior work in various years; overall condition summaries and a market valuation place the airframe at $675,000. The aircraft remains categorized as fixed-wing multi engine and presents as an older, serviceable executive transport supported by aftermarket avionics updates on some sales records.

The cabin is described in listings as a typical executive corporate interior that accommodates 7–15 passengers in a flexible executive layout, with various advertisements noting refreshed interior work carried out in unspecified years. Avionics are centered on a Collins Pro Line / Collins FD-109-era suite; some listings report supplemental Garmin upgrades including GTN-750, GTX transponders, and GMX multifunction displays, indicating a mixed legacy-plus-modernized cockpit fit. Operationally the airframe suits corporate point-to-point missions and longer regional hops consistent with its 2,420 nm range and 420 kt cruise, operated from a base associated with its owner in New Carrollton, MD. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft reflect its age, engine model series, and the noted history of interior refreshes recorded on sale listings.

The Hawker Siddeley HS-125-700A occupies a mid-size executive twinjet niche, offering elevated cabin comfort and transcontinental regional capability for its era. Competing models typically include other late-1970s/early-1980s midsize business jets with similar cruise and range profiles; buyer interest often balances acquisition cost, demonstrated maintenance history, and avionics modernization. For this specific airframe, resale and continued operation hinge on the documented interior refreshes, any avionics retrofit completeness, and the lifecycle status of the Honeywell TFE731 engines when appraised against the $675,000 valuation.
