Hawker 4000, the world’s most advanced and luxurious supermidsize business jet has made its first entry in India. InterGlobe General Aviation (a subsidiary of InterGlobe Enterprises), the exclusive sales and service representative for Hawker Beechcraft in SAARC, delivered this first super-midsized business jet to a Mumbai based customer.
The winner of Robb Reports “Best of the best”, the Hawker 4000, priced at USD $22.2 million, has redefined standards for business aviation globally with its unmatched quality, comfort, safety, value and technological innovation.
The spacious and luxurious Hawker 4000 is capable of carrying a two-man crew and nine passengers over distances of up to 3,280 nautical miles and is well suited to the Indian market as it can complete all mission requirements normally only associated with aircraft of much higher acquisition cost.
Commenting on delivery and response to date from the Indian corporate fraternity, Nigel A. Harwood, CEO, InterGlobe General Aviation said, “We are delighted to announce the arrival of the 4000 aircraft in India. Designed to maximize the productivity of customers by enabling them to reach destinations faster, it is a fitting choice for the Indian business community who wish to combine luxury with efficiency and price.
This Hawker 4000 delivery is the first of three deliveries to take place over the coming months and thus highlights the demand in the market.
Harwood went on to say, “Hawker models are well suited to the requirements of the business or private traveler in India. Luxurious cabins, individually customized to provide an exceptional experience are hallmark of the Hawker line. The range and capabilities of Hawker aircraft make business travel an easy option”.
InterGlobe General Aviation, the only Hawker Beechcraft Authorized Service Centre in the region, provides support to all Hawker Beechcraft customers. The World Class facility includes 1,700 square meters of amenities including a VIP lounge, pilot offices, crew lounges, maintenance support offices and a large hangar that can perform light and heavy maintenance.
