    I’m more impressed that there’s proline 21 in a hawker 750. I flew hawkers for years and this is probably one of the most interesting things I’ve seen about this airplane.

    Hello, Former Hawker captain here. About 3,000 hours in type. I’m flying 777’s now. All jets require maintenance. The Hawker is the most rugged, overbuilt aircraft I’ve flown. I does many things very well. Even it’s electrical system is superior to Bombardier products because, when you accidentally leave a hot item on, like a hell hole light, only one battery is drained, instead of two. This allows you to charge the dead battery with external power instead of having to pull out both batteries to recharge them. It’s mechanical nose gear down indication is wonderful to have too when your nose gear down light is inoperative when gear is selected down on the downwind. Too many other good things to list.

    When I am ready, I will give you a call. Thanks for your informative videos, clear sky's to you and yours.

    I love how you make it sound so easy and layman understandable. I love your content. Keep doing more of it. Ikem from Nigeria

    This is incredible to watch. Very professional. Beautiful plane. Looking forward to many more videos from you.
  • @denisgalaev728
    Nice plane, excellent specialist! Thanks for the video. I'm waiting for more interesting planes.
  • @Veselov1983
    Looks great. What the other options with same distance, price. Thanks for the review, it was useful and Informative.😎
  • Max, how many hours flight time to be type rated in Hawker jet for Pic?
  • @iflyu2
    You don’t necessarily take off unpressurized. Only on the 800A and before are you required to shut off the apu before takeoff and start it after you land. On the 800XP and up, the Honeywell APU can be left running up to 30,000 feet and started below 20,000 providing bleed air to the pressurization system. The only limitation is the engine bleeds and the apu bleed air can’t be on together for more than a one minute.

    Russian Archer missiles were copies of American first generation AiM-9 Sidewinders and lacked the liquid cooling of the thermal seeking head and Russia used a proximity fuse to explode by driving an explosive pin into a liquid that caused an explosion. Unfortunately, the missiles usually hit directly before exploding or exploding a second after a hit because the explosive compound had become hardened. Not saying the jet isn't tough, but the Russian missiles also sucked.
  • @e44h73
    there's at least one case for Hawker I don’t remember exactly - a mismatch in flap release or a broken flap attachment - anyway quite scary.

    In-depth review, Max, thanks! I don't feel like Hawker is a "pilot-owner" airplane, but for some missions, it certainly fits. It might be a good choice in addition to Eclipse or C525 if one can maintain 2 jets): fly a single pilot for shorter missions and have Hawker for coast-to-coast. Acquisition price vs capabilities looks good! Since part-time pilots are available, you may be able to hire one to do the task; you don't need a full-time pilot. Two questions: is it popular for charters (to get an airplane flying while you fly shorter missions on smaller jets), and am I correct in saying it is easy to find SIC for part-time? How much is the pilot per day?
  • @krdmnomer
    What is the top competitor of this model?
  • @everythingman987
    Wow thanks FAA. All HS-125’s are the same type rating regardless of avionics but the GIV and G450 are on separate type ratings and so are the Falcon 900 and Falcon 900EX EASy are also on separate type ratings.
  • I don't have parking for thisz otherwise I would have bought one of them
  • @MrSpar4
    Why is the FAA require to have a second pilot on this plane?
