Jota Aviation Limited was a British specialist charter airline based at London Southend Airport, United Kingdom. It held a United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority Type A Operating Licence No. 2376;[2] and was permitted to carry passengers, cargo and mail on aircraft with 20 or more seats.[3]

History

[edit]

Jota Aviation was founded in 2009,[4] to meet the travel and cargo demands of the motorsport industry. Together with the related Jota Sport, Jota Design and Jota Historic divisions, formed the Jota Group.[5] It was expanded into a specialist air charter and aircraft management company, offering 24-hour-a-day response from its London Southend Airport base. The company once declared itself the largest operator of Beechcraft King Air Model 90 aircraft in Europe.[6]

The company offered ad hoc or Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance (wet lease) charter flights on its British Aerospace 146,[4] added to its Air Operator's Certificate in 2014.[citation needed] On 11 January 2016, JOTA announced the addition to their fleet of an Avro RJ85 aircraft.[7] It was delivered to Southend on 5 April 2016. On 20 February 2017, JOTA received an Avro RJ100 formerly operated by Brussels Airlines.[citation needed] On 10 April 2018, JOTA announced an expansion of their cargo fleet with the addition of four BAe 146-300QTs, the first of which, was expected to enter service on 1 June 2018.[8]

Jota Aviation ceased operations in April 2022 and announced in the following month that it was entering liquidation due to negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business.[9][10][11]
