Eddie Jordans H125 700 at Oxford.
Gama Aviation H125 1000 based at Farnborough.
Corp. Aircraft Leasing H125 800 based at Oxford?
BAe Corp Aviation H125 800s based at Warton.
Lynton Avition H125 700 & 800s at Luton

I think you'll find the Matalan 800XP was sold to the US when they got their F900EX, and the Granada 125 has been on the market for some months. I'm not sure if the Lynton aircraft are still on the market.

Bloody hell, things move quick in aviation. Last I heard (about a month ago) Matalans 800XP was going to be the first XP on the G-reg. CAA surveyor had been to view it and made his requirements etc for the UK registration change.

Oh well maybe the XP at Leeds/Bradford will be the first one on the G-reg.

Your info may be more up to date than mine. The last I heard the Matalan (J-Max Air Services) 800XP N41762 was being sold by Vance and Engles. I will ask around. I could be confusing it with the Datel 800XP N955MC 258384.
Others I know are
Do Marconi still operate G-AXDM from Edinburgh?
G-BXNR 125-800B RMC based Farnborough
G-GDEZ 1000 Frewton LTD Not Sure about this?
G-BJDJ 125-700B FJC Farnborough
N494AT Kaiserair Inc Farnborough
G-BTAB Possibly Sold Based Farnborough
G-TCDI 400F Aravco Farnborough.

just to add to Mike Echo's answer about HS125 bases....

G GDEZ is a Jersey based 125 operated by a local corporate air charter firm.

It's fully crewed though i believe.

Nig2D,

Just as a matter of interest, why do you say that Interflight is a bad choice? I'm not arguing (actually I agree wholeheartedly) but was just wondering what you were basing it on.

If you don't like to say in public eMail me on [email protected]

Just from general reports and rumours from a few people who are independent from each other. One or two bad mouthings I could put down to chance of meeting a disgruntled employee or someone getting the wrong end of the stick. I can't recall hearing a good report from anyone who has anything to do with them.

This was the reasoning for my warning of "maybe a bad choice".

If I was looking for a job and they were offering me one it's not to say I wouldnt look at it, I'd just be more cautious and do some homework first.

If you are offered a job, talk to me before you accept!

Just to confirm we have 3 HS25 800's here at BAE SYSTEMS Warton, soon to be 2!!! Unfortunately we have only just laid some HS25 guys off, so no hope of employment here for a while!!

Hope this helps
