I'm guessing Scot Airways & Eastern may have picked up some work but both of these only operate turboprop aircraft.

I think bmi have picked up some Football work, especially at weekends when their Embraers aren't too busy.

Any idea who actually owns Citelynx's aircraft at the moment?

Those 2 airlines were always pretty busy anyway. Don't forget Citystar and Icejet as well, with their mix of 328 props and jets.

And Citelynx seemed to have 1 or 2 clubs that had solid deals to use the aircraft.

Obviously, demand is subject to how many matches are being played on a night or across a weekend where the distance between the stadiums is 150 miles or more.

Some teams charter rail carriages, especially when playing games in London.

What's happening to the aircraft?

Who owns/owned them and where might they go?

Neil mctaggart is the guy you need to talk to if its possible to get hold of him or the chairman (strange guy) A Mr m sparks of Bridport dorset. Worked for 'sparks' for a short while but phew now there's a guy with an attitude !! Whoever said "North korea, meets the Brittas empire was right".

Neil is now in DXB - good luck to those he left behind. Maybe the CRJ will appear at a London Airport once used by Hurricans in WW2
