I was there....15 years working on the programme, culminating in heading up the procurement team for the entire aircraft ( both production and support) until the programme closed in 2002. Happy days...
John E. Davies (JED to his colleagues and friends) was my boss in the Customer Training Centre at Woodford. We had also spent may overseas RJ and ATP flight test trials on the same team. Great bloke, great pilot, great character, wonderful sense of humour. Sadly lost his life at Dunsfold the year after this RJ display whilst flying a Hawker Hunter. R.I.P John.
NICE i lived in Higher Disley and could over look Woodford and had many aircraft low over head the 146 included . love the turbine whistle you caught it on the video . the best 146 or maybe rjx over flight was in near by new mills few years back massive moor fires raged on for wks. and 146 biased air quality aircraft did low fast pass of the town during sampling run the turbine whistle was outstanding lol
Really amazed by BAe-146/Avro-RJ short field performance....like a mini C-17🛫😍

The 146 was a beautiful aircraft, it was just so unusual
just that the aircraft is an RJ70. Super video thanks for posting
Brilliant place to work at Woodford many fond memories, shame it's long gone, thanks for the video 👍

Such a stunning aircraft! Love it. Sad to see it go!
Great video! Loved the 146 since working nextdoor to the atmospheric measurements aircraft G-LUXE at Cranfield
I think I've fallen in love it it a little late 😁
Thanks Ian. Cool display!
Always liked the appearance of this, it's the smaller C-17...
That's what I thought when you see them flying together for the queen's flypast in past years
You mean bigger C17 globemaster
@@josephlambe2796 no, a smaller C-17.
The aircraft in Air Malta colours is an RJ70 not a RJ85. I did a 6 week demo tour with this aircraft to the Far East and Middle East.
Thank you for the correction Dennis
Who are Pioneer Australia? I assume they'll take off the engines and replace them with dummies?
