BAE 146, RAF History:

The BAE 146 is an all-metal, high-wing monoplane, with a wide bodied fuselage and a slightly swept, anhedral wing. Two aircraft are operated by No 32 (The Royal) Squadron at RAF Northolt in the Royal or VVIP transport and communication roles. The standard operating crew for each plane consists of two pilots, two cabin crew and one ground engineer.

The BAE 146 is based on the civilian BAE 146 100 Series, but has additional fuel tanks and a Royal Suite cabin fit. The modern, electronic defensive aids suite gives nearly 360 degrees protection against infrared missiles. The aircraft has a trailing axle main gear with a large damper unit, allowing it to operate from unprepared surfaces, including gravel and desert runways.

The BAE 146 is a quiet but rugged aircraft with a high level of built-in redundancy. Its capability to carry many of its own spares allows it to operate for long periods away from base, with little to no external support. An extremely versatile plane, the BAE 146 has excellent short field performance and can operate from high or unprepared airfields in missile threat areas.
