Mahogany Wooden Model

Airplane Collection models are collection pieces for the following technical reasons. Firstly, the models are limited editions and hand-crafted. Secondly, the replica is an accurate scaled-down model of the original aircraft. All specifications of the airplane’s design are religiously respected for accuracy. Thirdly, the wood is carefully chosen for its natural beauty, colour and grain in function to the type of aircraft model. A pre-determined time is taken to dry and conserve the wood before the hand-crafting by our artists.

The Hawker 1000 is one of the more recent additions to British Aerospace’s HS-125 private business jet series. It has intercontinental range capabilities and is quite roomy for a mid-sized private jet. It strikes a good balance between the various areas of private jet performance.

The cabin of the Hawker 1000 can come in a traditional or a biomorphic design. The biomorphic design has smooth curves and is supposed to increase passenger comfort and useful space. The cabin stretches to 24.4 feet long (not including the cockpit), 5.8 feet high, and 6 feet wide. It is usually configured to hold eight seats, but can hold as many as eight.

Two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305 turbofan engines power the Hawker 1000, providing 5,255 pounds of thrust each on takeoff. A new design to reduce engine noise puts out exhaust at a slower velocity, thus producing only 90 EPNdB for a noise footprint of 1.6 square miles. (A noise footprint is the area in which listeners would be significantly affected by jet engine noise). In comparison, the noise footprint of a typical twin turboprop would be 4.2 square miles.
