Schubach Aviation Adds Hawker 800XP to Fleet

March 7, 2012 - PRLog -- Schubach Aviation, (www.schubachaviation.com), San Diego’s largest air charter company, has augmented its fleet of corporate, luxury aircraft with a newly acquired Hawker 800XP, announced Henry Schubach, president of the firm.

The Hawker 800XP is best suited for transcontinental trips to the East Coast, Canada or Mexico, or for passengers wanting spacious cabin room for shorter-range trips. The aircraft is equipped with Hawker Beech - Raytheon factory winglets.  Besides looking sleek, the winglets increase lift and aircraft performance, resulting in extended range and efficient high speed cruise at flight level altitudes.    

Featuring the largest cabin in the mid-size jet category, the Hawker 800XP can accommodate up to eight passengers. Amenities include leather seats, an enclosed lavatory, entertainment center, flight phone, and galley with refreshment center and mini-bar.  A DVD and video console with forward and aft airshow screens provide up-to-the-minute flight progress to passengers.  This aircraft has also been upgraded with an iridium satellite phone system for business aloft.

With a cruising speed of 500 miles an hour, and a maximum altitude of 41,000 feet, the Hawker 800XP is a mid-sized jet that feels like a larger one, offering maximum passenger comfort, extended range and superior reliability. Whatever the destination -- from New York or Chicago to Cancun, Mex. -- charter customers will enjoy a superb ride aboard this luxury aircraft.

The newly acquired Hawker 800XP joins Schubach Aviation’s existing fleet of 12 aircraft, including a Gulfstream IV SP, two wide-bodied Bombardier Challenger 601s, four Hawkers, a Lear 35, two Citation Jets, and two factory-new CJ3s.
