Cobham retires final RJ
On 3 June, the end of an era was taking place at Cobham Aviation as the company retired its final RJ100, VH-NJY (E3331). With this, Cobham is ending a thirteen year relationship with operating BAe146/RJs, which started in March 2009. Since then the airline operated four BAe146-100s, three BAe146-200s, six BAe146-300s, one RJ70, two RJ85s and seven RJ100s.
The place of the BAe146/RJs is taken-over by the DHC-8-400, of which Cobham now has seven in service. It also operates six ERJ190s. Next to its passenger-flying business, Cobham is also offering airborne surveillance, search and rescue and (special) mission training.
