[edit] Changes 12/27/05 by Emt147

I merged BAe 125, Dominie, and Hawker 800/1000 articles together to get rid of a bunch of stubs. IMHO a single detailed article is preferrable. I chose Dominie and 850XP specs as the most representative versions of the aircraft. - Emt147 Burninate! 23:18, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Nonsense Name

Just thought I would object to the change in name (and the mispelling of British !) - the aircraft was never the British Aerospace BAe 125 (this would make it the British Aerospace British Aerospace 125) can somebody revert this back to something more sensible please MilborneOne 21:20, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

But the DH.110, DH.112, and HS.121, which are part of the same designation sequence, also use abbreviations for manufacturers. This is not redundancy; it is merely how the manufacturers chose to name their aircraft. Similar patterns can be seen in the North American NA-62 and Lockheed L-1011.

Also, Airliners.net refers to it as the British Aerospace BAe 125 almost exclusively: see here. Ingoolemo talk 17:58, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
The UK CAA and the Royal Air Force call it the British Aerospace 125 and abbreviate it to BAe 125 Not BAe BAe 125 ! - I would not call airliners net an authority on the subject. I would agree that some companies do use the style like the NA-62 but in this instance I believe BAe is just an abbreviation for the company - never seen the 146 described as the British Aerospace BAe 146 for example.
