The British Aerospace 146, a short-haul and regional airliner manufactured in the United Kingdom by British Aerospace, had its conceptualization set in motion in the early 1970s. Initiated as the HS.146 Project by Hawker Siddeley, the aim was to create a 70-seat regional airliner characterized by a high wing and T-tail, bridging the gap between turboprop-powered and small jet airliners. However, the 1973 oil crisis imposed a temporary hiatus on the project. Undeterred, British Aerospace revived the endeavour in 1978.
The fruition of this pursuit materialized in the form of the British Aerospace 146-100, later enhanced and rebranded as the RJ70 by Avro International. The inaugural delivery occurred in 1983, featuring a luxurious interior. Additionally, the 146-100QT variant emerged as the freight configuration of choice.
