This former Cityjet aircraft has been donated to the City of Norwich Museum and was lifted into place on the 31st Oct 2020 at Norwich airport
here a small picture collection on EI-RJN and the lift

Operating out of London City during 2017

Seen arriving at Norwich Feb 2019 with Aer Lingus titles, this was to become her last landing

On her arrival her titles were removed and slowly stripped of parts over time

By April 2020 she was on the north side and parts missing
