Certainly the top picture brings back memories of Guernesy Airport in the '80s and I will have pictures of all those types and airlines there (maybe except the SD330 on the far right - can't make out the livery). I'm sure that you'll recall the only scheduled jet movement was the NLM Fokker 28.
Many a happy time spent at the vieing location from where these pictures were taken.
Thanks for posting

Yes NLM from AMS on Wed/Sat/Sun during the summer season, the first domestic scheduled jet service was Dan Air's CWL-BRS-GCI-JER-BRS -CWL with a 146-100,
I seem to remember the SH330 was an Air Ecosse machine..
