Can anyone tell me how many and which types of HS125 aircraft 'Gold Air' areoperating, or have operated please?

Their current website shows more than one Learjet and there is an (are) HS125s in service but I could not see how many are currently operated.

http://www.caa.co.uk/application.aspx?c ... GOLD%20AIR

shows the aircraft registered to Gold Air

http://www.caa.co.uk/application.aspx?c ... dereg=true

shows aircraft no longer registered with them.

So that gives G-OLDD and G-OJPB as 125s

Of course they may have operated 125s not registered to them.

Thanks to everyone for the information supplied.

What a pity they only seem to operate one HS125 at present. I suspect that even with the current expansion plans the new company will try to standardise on a medium size bizjet which may knock out the HS125.

I was hoping to propose the HS125 for a new CBF VA aircraft but the current economic model I have been told will probably not allow the HS125 with such a small passenger load to be profitable.

However perhaps sometime in the future new conditions will allow the VA to operate this excellent British aircraft.

Is there a HS125 for FS2004? I thought that they were all AI models.

I've searched all theFS sites and can only find AIs. A couple of them are flyable and with a tweak of the FDE should be pretty good..except no VC or moving surfaces. I'll be creating a Dominie 2-D panel for one of them and should have it ready by March.

Any of you talented modellers want to create a FS2004 HS125??? I can supply any photos or docs you need...and even access to the aircraft!
