The Cessna 441 was I think G-AUTO but I don't remember seeing that at Blackbushe much.

Prior to that (I think in the 70's) there was a PA23 that they operated, in an all-over Union Jack scheme and a Jet Ranger. These both also lived at Blackbushe from what I remember.
I don't recall G-OBCA being operated by the AA. The reason it was based at Blackbushe was that, as the registration suggests, it was owned and operated by British Car Auctions.

The AA's Golden Eagle (the aircraft noted operating from the mystery Basingstoke strip) was G-BBUJ.
