I have been searching high and low to find a FAA TR provider for above Hawker but cannot locate one. I have contacted Simcom but they cannot tell me if the 700/800 covers this model. Any help will be highly appreciated.

The Rating you get on a JAA/CAA Licence is simply HS125. Allows you to fly all marks of the Hawker even the 1000 I believe. You will probably need to do 800 Course as that is the usual course given by FlightSafety/ Simcom etc.. Local training will then cover the differences. I doubt you will get a 700 Course as so few in operation.

Ok that is one thing I have been able to establish the 700/800/800XP is on one FAA TR and the 1000 is a TR on its own.

The 1000 is different.
Then find some old F@@t to show you the real hawker...
The 731 1a or 1b, is a great machine,
been there, and got the T shirt.
Worst case get an 800 rating, but newer technology, so the conversion will be harder.
Just seen you are in London: contact Interflight at BIG, and ask Simon.
