FAA gives full certification to Hawker 400XPR
The 400XPR installation is fully customisable, and can take as little as 12 weeks, said Beechcraft.
Beechcraft Corporation, a subsidiary of Textron Aviation Inc., has announced that it has received Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification on all 400XPR programme elements. All components of the upgrade package will be available for installation on Beechjet 400A and Hawker 400XP aircraft at Textron Aviation service centres worldwide. The first full installation is expected to be delivered later this year, says Beechcraft.
Brad Thress, senior vice-president, said: “Our customers have been extremely impressed with the aircraft’s outstanding performance and we are eager to provide our 400A/400XP owners and operators with the confidence that comes only from an upgrade engineered and supported by the original manufacturer.”
The 400XPR installation is fully customisable, and can take as little as 12 weeks, said Beechcraft. The full Hawker 400XPR package includes Genuine Hawker Winglets and new Williams International FJ44-4A-32 engines. Customers will also be given the choice to upgrade their avionics from the standard Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4 avionics to a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite. Refurbishment also comes with Textron Aviation’s ProParts coverage and a five year Williams International engine warranty.
