BAe Avro RJ100 3354 VH-NJI Cobham Aviation Services last in svc 03jun22 ADL-PUG-YCPT-PUG-ADL (+ 3331 VH-NJY 02jun22 same route) ex G-BZAW

NJI should not be included as it has been flying other charters.

NJI is a freighter and is serial 3154.

NJP is 3354 and is most likely what they were referring to.

Q400's IYP and IYZ are now based in ADL to replace the RJ's.

Cobham retires final RJ

On 3 June, the end of an era was taking place at Cobham Aviation as the company retired its final RJ100, VH-NJY (E3331). With this, Cobham is ending a thirteen year relationship with operating BAe146/RJs, which started in March 2009. Since then the airline operated four BAe146-100s, three BAe146-200s, six BAe146-300s, one RJ70, two RJ85s and seven RJ100s.

The place of the BAe146/RJs is taken-over by the DHC-8-400, of which Cobham now has seven in service. It also operates six ERJ190s. Next to its passenger-flying business, Cobham is also offering airborne surveillance, search and rescue and (special) mission training.

E190s don’t cut it for the curfew though

[Brenden S]

E190 P2F? First I have heard of that.
As for the curfew, as long as they meet stage 4 requirements and freight ops they are good to operate.

Recently Embraer has launched a P2F version bases on the E190 & E195.

Irish lessor Nordic Aviation Capital (NAC) has signed an agreement with Embraer for the lease of up to 10 E190 and E195 passenger-to-freighter (P2F) converted jets, becoming the launch customer.

For those already operating the E190/5 and have a freighter requirement then this might be a perfect fit to their operations
