Textron Aviation Hawker 4000

The Hawker 4000 was the first business jet with a composite fuselage and offered a large flat-floor cabin, PW308A engines and a 3,280 nm range. A protracted development and the manufacturer's bankruptcy limited production to about 75 aircraft, making it a capable super-midsize jet available at remarkably low prices.

In short: The Textron Aviation Hawker 4000 is a Super-Midsize Jet with a range of 3,280 nm, a cruise speed of 464 knots and room for 8 passengers. Pre-owned examples trade around $3M–$5.5M and costs roughly $3,300 an hour to operate (estimate).
