Jetstream 31 Airline

For the last two Fridays I've noticed an all-white aircraft, looks like a J-31, arriving into GRJ around 14:00 from the direction of PLZ. Does anyone know of an airline serving this route again or at least any airline that operates J-31 in SA?

Are you not confusing it with an Emraer Brasilia?

Doesn't Federal/Nelair/Pelican operate them? Seen one in that general area at FAJS in the past.

J31 OPERATED BY

To my knowledge GAL aviation at JIA a leasing company for aircraft operate the only one in the country.It was used for Federal air for some months but suffered the hot and high problems.

I believe it has also been operating in Zim for a few months, maybe back in RSA for a few months.??

KMIA - for Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport, or then MQP.

Anyway, I guess it could have been an Embraer Brasilia as well, but pretty much the same form as a J-41, just smaller. Maybe just a charter flight, coincidently arriving the same time on two consecutive fridays.
