Bae 146

Could someone please advise the range of this aircraft? Does anyone know what routes it does from the UK? I remember BRAL used to use it on the MAN-GIB route.

Used to operate 146 from Alice Springs (YBAS) to Perth (YPPH), 1070nm. A 300 series with 507 engines could cope with about 100-120kts HWC, whereas the 502 would often have to tech stop if the HWC was that strong.

Arrival fuel of about 1000k.

As an aside, I once had 501 kt GS in the climb ex Perth, using the BAe schedule climb mach (0.64 I think).

I'm assuming you want to know what the longest routes are that the aircraft operates rather than just all its routes.

Two data points for you:

- BA and Cityjet fly LCY-MAD (but this is payload-constrained by the LCY runway)
- there's a weekly charter operation this summer from Waterford (WTF) to AGP.

With normal reserves, the BAe146 runs out of fuel after 3½ hours (which is quite wonderful if you have had more than enough of long haul flying).

A friend once managed Istanbul to Stansted with one but it was a ferry flight and the aircraft was empty. I think that was 4 hours and 10 minutes.

I have several 5+hr flts on TQF aircraft - Nairobi-Seychelles-Colombo, Ascension-Sucre, BDA-Trinidad, being some of them that spring to mind.
We were in a 100 with pallet tanks at max wt 38k or whatever it was...2000kg was our min arr fuel roughly. It's been 20 yrs....

We [I]could[I] have done Gander-Shannon on a couple of occasions, but allowances were much better at Rekyavik

Manchester - Cagliari was the furthest i ever went with a full load of 110 pax and bags. 1117nm by great circle. This was taking off with full fuel in tanks (which we needed) at MTow.

Galway-Malaga (RJ-70) during EuroManx's brief foray into western Ireland. Full load, full tanks and off only 4300' (OK, downhill).
