First Biz-Jet Visitor
Pic - Owen 'Jim' Russell
 via Alvin Furrer

G-AVGW Hawker Siddeley Hs.125 Series 3B operated by the Beecham Group was the first 'biz jet' to visit the island in 1967.  Sadly the aircraft was lost together with two lives whilst on a training flight from Luton Airport later that year.
