B757
B767
Concorde
Tristar
DC-10

So eleven

I suspect a sometime during the 1970's Aeroflot would be the winner in this category
Don't remember us having any 146's when I was there in 1990, was there a franchise operation on it back then ?

AFAIK, the only 146 BA was operating in 1990 was G-OLCA, leased for three months from Loganair.

In the early-ish 90s I certainly flew on a BA 146 from MAD to LGW. Not too sure the exact year - it was the same year that BMI 146s were operating MUC > ARN on behalf of LH because I'd been on one of those the week before.

Maybe a franchise, but the arcraft was full BA livery and the Cpt was Swedish.


Edited to correct - the BMI flight was MUC > HEL, not ARN

Ipec Aviation operated the two DC-9 freighters from early 1990 until 1999.

For a small airline Air UK operated (at various times) quite an array of types - Bandeirante, SD330/360, F27 (many variants), BAe146 (all variants), F100, B737, ATR72 and probably others.

One of it's constituents, Air Anglia, was 100% F-27 200 for a while - after they retired their DC3

They leased in two Presidential BAe 146s in 1989 for a summer : N407XV/N408XV.
