VP BAT shown in the photo seems to spend most of it's time at EGHH. I was told that the Far East owner's son goes to Bournemouth College (sorry, University).
I have always wondered who operated this aircraft as I have frequently seen it parked at Hurn. The airframe history for VP-BAT can be found here:

Talking of privetly/government owned widebodies, does anybody know why the Embasy of Saudi Arabia's A340-300 is a regular to Brize Norton?
