Plus several more such as Globe European which never got started (MAN-based 737s), AV8 Air (virtual airline but never got its own AOC to fly the 757 it had taken on).

BritishJet wasn't technically an airline and was either Maltese or Swiss depending on which way you look at it, but had "British" on the side of the aircraft!

Spantax deserves the already-made honourable mention. Who could ever forget once you'd seen them in action

Other Spanish entries could include Lineas Aereas Canarias (MD83 and the dubious Argentinian 727), NortJet, Canafrica > Oasis International (with the AeroCancun machine) and Viva Air which flew as a charter airline for a while.
