RADAR ESTIMATE
What N118CD is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the Hawker Siddeley HS.125 Series 700A on its own yet, so this borrows the Cessna Citation XLS+ curve, scales it to N118CD's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N118CD
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, registered as N118CD, is a Hawker Siddeley airframe built in 1977 with serial number NA0212. The aircraft is a Hawker Siddeley HS.125 Series 700A originally manufactured by Hawker Siddeley and currently registered in the US.
Operations & Cabin
The subject airframe is certificated for up to 15 seats but is commonly outfitted in a typical executive seven-eight passenger layout, matching its long service role as a company transport and light charter platform. Avionics installed are representative of the Collins ProLine-era fit found in many Series 700A examples; many airframes of this vintage have been modernized with GPS/WAAS/ADS-B upgrades, though the factory-era suite remains typical for this specific example. With a cruise speed of 424 kts and a range of 2,330 nm, operational use for N118CD typically centers on medium-distance corporate missions, air ambulance or light cargo/ad hoc charter duties from its operator base in Wilmington, DE. Maintenance considerations include the Garrett TFE731 turbofans and aging ProLine avionics, both of which influence inspection cycles and the economics of avionics modernization.
Model & Market Context
The Hawker Siddeley HS.125 Series 700A occupies a mature mid-size business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability with a service ceiling of 41,000 ft and efficient Garrett TFE731 powerplants. Competing models in the used market include later-generation light and midsize business jets that offer more modern avionics and cabin amenities; this places emphasis on avionics upgrades and structural/engine maintenance when assessing resale.
