Skyworld Aviation has announced the sale of an ERJ 145 to BAE Systems (Corporate Air Travel). The aircraft, serial number 145588, was originally delivered new to Swiss and then went on to operate with AeroMexico Connect for 11 years. The aircraft was later parked and sold to a third party aircraft owner, based in the U.S.

Skyworld Aviation contracted Charles Taylor Aviation Asset Management to act for the Seller, whilst BAE contracted FlyerTech as its CAMO. The aircraft was successfully brought back into EASA certification and arrived at East Midlands Airport on 27th June 2019 where it was painted by Airbourne Colours.
