The second 146 built as G-SSHH in May 1981 was painted in TABA c/s for the 1983 Paris show and then reregistered G-OPSA in Jan 1984, anticipating Pacific Southwest's order. It was leased to the Californian carrier as N5828B in Oct that year but returned to BAe as G-SSHH less than six months later, becoming N801RW with Royal West in Jun 1986 and G-BPNP with Dan-Air (keeping basic RW colours) in Jun 1987. Leased to American Airlines as N720BA from Dec 1987, back to BAe in Mar 1988 to become military transport demo G-BSTA.
