N901SC Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
Midsize jet performance from N901SC: 448 knots, 2,540 nautical miles, 41,000-foot ceiling. The Hawker 800XP's 2x Honeywell TFE731-5BR are proven powerplants with extensive operator support networks.
Mission Profile
N901SC handles the bread-and-butter missions of business aviation: city pairs under 2,000 nautical miles with passenger groups of 4-8. The Hawker 800XP's 6.0 ft-wide cabin and 9-seat capacity deliver what those missions require.
Charter Authorization
N901SC is Part 135 certified for on-demand charter operations. The Hawker 800XP's balanced range and cabin size make it one of the most frequently chartered midsize platforms. Contact us for availability.
Insider Note
Buyers comparing midsize jets should focus on three variables: engine program enrollment, avionics generation, and interior condition. N901SC's 2001 manufacture date and active Part 135 status suggest the aircraft is maintained to revenue-service standards, which typically exceeds Part 91 maintenance requirements.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
N901SC is a 2001 Hawker under SC AVIATION INC. The Honeywell TFE731 engines on this platform have one of the longest service histories in business aviation. This briefing covers where that heritage translates to value and where it does not.
Fleet Position
The Hawker 800 series remains one of the most operated midsize jets in the United States, with roughly 400 on active U.S. registrations. FAA data confirms N901SC based in MONROE, WI. While production ended in 2013, the installed fleet continues to fly significant charter and corporate hours. Parts support from Honeywell (engines) and Raytheon/Textron (airframe) remains available, though some Hawker-specific components carry longer lead times than Citation or Challenger parts.
Charter Availability
N901SC is Part 135 charter authorized. Hawker charter rates have compressed as the fleet ages, currently running $3,500 to $5,000 per flight hour. This positions the Hawker as one of the most affordable standup-cabin jets on the charter market. The tradeoff is cabin technology: older interiors, less soundproofing than modern midsizes, and narrower cabin windows. For cost-conscious travelers who prioritize value over aesthetics, the Hawker remains a strong option.
Market Position
N901SC is a 2001 Hawker 800 from the later production years. Pre-owned values sit at $1.5M to $2.5M. Late-production 800s often have upgraded avionics (Collins Pro Line II or early Pro Line 21 retrofits) and refreshed interiors. These aircraft occupy the sweet spot between depreciation and usable life, with 10-15 years of economically viable service remaining if well maintained.
The critical question at this age is whether the TFE731 engines have been through their second hot section inspection. If recently completed, that represents $400,000 to $700,000 in value already invested. If approaching HSI, discount your acquisition offer accordingly and confirm Honeywell parts lead times before closing.
Mission Profile
The Hawker 800 series handles routes between 400 and 2,500 nautical miles. New York to Chicago in 1 hour 50 minutes. Dallas to Washington D.C. in 2 hours 30 minutes. Miami to Bermuda in 2 hours 15 minutes. The 6.0-foot-wide cabin seats 8 comfortably with a fully enclosed rear lavatory. For domestic business travel under 3 hours, the Hawker delivers the mission at the lowest cost in the midsize category.
When to Choose Something Else
Pass on the Hawker if you need to fly more than 300 hours per year with low total operating costs. While hourly rates are competitive, the aging fleet means unscheduled maintenance events become more frequent. AOG (aircraft on ground) situations carry longer resolution times than Citation or Gulfstream platforms because the Hawker parts pipeline is narrower. For high-utilization operations, a younger airframe reduces downtime risk.
Ownership & Operations
Aircraft management companies handle the operational complexity of jet ownership. They provide crew, maintenance tracking, regulatory compliance, insurance, and hangar coordination. Management fees run $8,000 to $25,000 per month depending on aircraft size. For owners who fly 100 to 300 hours annually, professional management reduces risk and administrative burden while maintaining access to Part 135 charter revenue.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Engine program enrollment significantly affects aircraft value and operating economics. Programs like Rolls-Royce CorporateCare, Pratt & Whitney Eagle Service Plan, and Honeywell MSP spread major engine costs into predictable hourly rates. Aircraft enrolled in these programs command 10 to 20% higher resale values than non-enrolled equivalents because buyers avoid the risk of unbudgeted engine overhauls.
Charter Market Context
The Jet Finder sources charter aircraft from a network of vetted Part 135 operators. We do not own aircraft. This broker model ensures clients see competitive options across multiple operators rather than being limited to a single fleet. Pricing transparency comes from comparing 3 to 5 operator quotes on every request. The client sees all options and chooses based on aircraft, price, and operator quality.
