Robb Report magazine has awarded Hawker Beechcraft
Corporation (HBC) with its prestigious "Best of the Best" Award for
the Hawker 900XP.
"The Hawker 900XP is gaining attention from businesses ready to
'right-size' from bigger jets," said William J. Curtis, Robb Report
Chairman and CEO. "We congratulate Hawker Beechcraft for taking top
honors for a second year for its Hawker aircraft."
Many corporations use large jets like a Dassault Falcon 900EX or
Gulfstream 550 to perform some of the most common corporate
missions like four passengers from New York to Los Angeles.
Compared to these larger jets, a Hawker 900XP performs the same
mission much more efficiently, saving up to 35 percent in fuel
costs and up to $33 million in purchase costs. In addition,
businesses will benefit from right-sizing to the Hawker 900XP by
saving up to 50 percent in insurance rates, up to 30 percent in
crew salaries and as much as $80,000 a year in hangar costs,
according to the report.
"We are honored to have the Hawker 900XP recognized by such a
well-respected publication as Robb Report," said Bill Boisture, HBC
Chairman and CEO. "Value and matching the right aircraft with the
right mission have never been more important than today. The Best
of the Best award reaffirms the superiority of the 900XP aircraft
and its ability to do most of what big jets do at a fraction of the
cost."
HBC received the 2008 Robb Report Best
of the Best award in the Recently Delivered Aircraft category for
its super-midsize Hawker 4000 - first in its class and the world's
most advanced business jet.
