Does the RAF still have any Wetdreams?

<nerd alert> On a thread in Private Flying there's a discussion about a LL turbo-prop on Nov 5th. The suggestion is that it could be an RAF/RN aircraft.

A fairly knowledgeable poster says he was at a flight safety evening at Cranditz and spoke to a Jetsteam instructor - yet I was under the impression that the RAF had disposed of all their flying Jetstreams in 2004

So, knowledgeable light blue brethren, who is right? </nerd alert>

I may be mistaken, but don't the RN still have them? I'm sure I've heard them flogging around Cornwall on occasion.

Navy still use them to train AsAC crews.

Don't think the RAF have any these days.

Still in use in the RN for all Basic Observer training (not just ASaC), often found at LL during LL elements of the course. Seems like a no brainer to me?

I didn't word my original post too well - I was aware that 750 and Heron flight still had them, but thought the RAF had disposed of them (literally in most cases) in 2004.

The chances of a LL 750 a/c by J30 of the M1 might be smallish?

From my experience of that part of the world, there's a hell of a lot of King Air activity from Cranwell.

Mind you, found this on a SBS (east) log for the 5th November...

"400F78 United Kingdom G-LOVB British Aerospace Jetstream 3102 "

Sadly I can't find a time. It belongs to BAe.
