G-GMAB Aircraft Overview
G-GMAB is a British Aerospace Hawker 4000 registered in United Kingdom with serial number 259034. The Hawker 4000 occupies the super-midsize category, bridging the performance gap between traditional midsize jets and large-cabin heavy platforms. The aircraft is associated with Gama Aviation, registered through the UK CAA.
Hawker 4000 Market Position
The Hawker 4000, originally the Horizon, was Raytheon's composite-fuselage super-midsize entry. Its carbon-fiber construction was ahead of its time, and production challenges limited deliveries to approximately 54 aircraft. The type offers excellent speed and cabin pressure differential but has a smaller support network than competitors.
Performance Profile
The Hawker 4000 cruises at 470 knots and achieves a maximum range of 3,280 nautical miles. That envelope covers coast-to-coast U.S. routes and most Caribbean or Central American destinations nonstop from mainland airports. Power comes from 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308A. A 45,000-foot service ceiling keeps the aircraft above congested airspace and most weather systems.
Mission Profile
Super-midsize jets fill a specific operational gap: passengers who need transcontinental range and a stand-up cabin without the acquisition and operating costs of a heavy jet. The Hawker 4000 seats up to 10 in a flat-floor cabin with enough room for a productive work environment or comfortable rest on legs exceeding four hours.

Insider Note
Super-midsize jets often operate from the same runway lengths as midsize aircraft but carry significantly more fuel and payload. For operators considering an upgrade from a midsize platform, the super-mid category delivers measurably more range without requiring access to longer runways.
