Model & Market Context
The airframe, registered as N868WU, is a British Aerospace-built Hawker 1000A (BAe 125 Series 1000A) constructed in 1992 with manufacturer serial number 259017. Ownership is held by 868WU LLC, a limited liability company based in South Portland, ME, US, and the aircraft is registered in the US. The airframe’s recorded equipment and listing notes include a reported refurbished Honeywell avionics suite; ownership is held by the single LLC operator and no other transfers are documented in the provided data. Condition highlights reported on listings emphasize the updated avionics fitment and an executive cabin refurbishment consistent with an eight–nine place layout.
The cabin of this specific Hawker 1000A is fitted in an executive 8–9 place layout with a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory, reflecting a configuration optimized for business transport and executive missions. Avionics reported for this airframe include a Honeywell EFIS and dual Honeywell NZ‑2000 FMS, with listings describing a refurbished Honeywell suite, indicating recent investment in avionics currency. Typical operations for this configuration, given the 3,000 nm range and 459 kt cruise capability, would focus on long-range corporate travel and extended point-to-point missions operated from the owner’s base in South Portland, ME. Maintenance considerations for this airframe prioritize twin PW305B engine support and the Honeywell avionics pedigree noted in records.
This airframe belongs to the BAe 125 Series 1000A family, represented here by the Hawker 1000A, which combines the specified high-altitude capability (41,000 ft) with long-range performance (3,000 nm) in an executive cabin. Buyer and charter demand for an airframe like N868WU is influenced by its updated avionics suite and cabin configuration, as well as ongoing support requirements for Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305B engines. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific example center on documentation of the refurbishments and the operator-held maintenance trail under 868WU LLC.
