Regency Jet (LJC, Gloucestershire) has retired its sole King Air B200, according to ch-aviation research. The UK-based charter company will continue operating two sister King Air B300s.
G-DXTR (msn BB-1244) completed its final flight under Regency Jet's 'LJC' code on June 29, 2024, from Gloucestershire to Guernsey. The 38-year-old Beech (twin turboprop) was de-registered in the UK on October 15, 2024, and re-registered in Guernsey two days later as 2-ANJA. It is now owned by FSB Aviation Limited, an Isle of Man-based company and minority shareholder of Jet Masterclass, a UK-based EASA Approved Training Organisation (ATO) specialising in pilot training.
Originally registered in the US, the aircraft had previously been registered in the UK, France, Australia, and South Africa. Before joining Regency Jet, it was operated by Synergy Aviation, which rebranded as Ascend Airways in October 2023.
In addition to its turboprop fleet, Regency Jet operates three business aircraft, including two Citation Bravo jets and a recently inducted Pilatus Aircraft PC-24. Regency Jet, which holds a UK AOC, is owned by The Little Jet Company. Both companies share the same branding, with social media and the website under The Little Jet Company's name. Specialising in private jet charter, aircraft management, acquisitions and sales, and maintenance, Regency Jet also provides ground services and runs fixed-base operations (FBO) at Gloucestershire.
