Cello BAe 146 G-RAJJ at the airline’s base at Birmingham (Gordon Stretch)
Birmingham-based Cello Aviation began operations in 2010, with a VIP-configured BAe 146-200 in a VIP configuration. An Avro RJ85 was operated from 2013 to 2015, and then an RJ100 was added in January 2018. The VIP-configured 146 was sold shortly thereafter. The airline ceased operations in October 2018.
