The Hawker 4000, a pioneering super-midsize business jet, marked a revolutionary advance in corporate aviation as the first aircraft in its class to feature all-composite fuselage construction. First flown on August 11, 2001, it was a low-wing twin-engine design powered by Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308A turbofans that could accommodate up to 10 passengers. With a maximum range of 3,341 nautical miles and cruising speed of 470 knots, it was manufactured by Raytheon Aircraft and later Hawker Beechcraft.
