Birmingham European Airways
· Birmingham· Flying since 1983· Europe
The airline was originally established in 1983 as Birmingham Executive Airways. As its name implied it was based at Birmingham Airport (BHX/EGBB) and operated services geared towards business travellers. The airline began operations on 6 June 1983 with three Jetstream 31 aircraft, flying services from Birmingham to Copenhagen, Zurich and Milan. A Saab 340 was introduced in February 1985, but it suffered severe reliability problems in service, and was retired at the end of the year. To replace it, the air carrier chose the Gulfstream I, operating a wet-leased aircraft from September 1986, with the airline receiving the first of its own Gulfstreams, fitted out as 24-seat airliners in February 1987. At that time the airline's route network included points such as Amsterdam, Milan, Oslo, Stuttgart, Newcastle, Belfast and Cork.
