BAC 1-11 in Europe

Whilst flicking through a copy of the “OAG” recently the page opened on Bourgas (BOJ) in Bulgaria.I noticed a service to Larnaca operated with a B11. The carrier is an airline named Aerotrans Airlines who seem to be based in Cyprus and operate flights from there to Eastern European destinations. Could this airline be the last scheduled passenger operator of the BAC 1-11 within Europe ?? I know there are examples of the type still flying in Africa, but this maybe the closest point to get a flight in a 1-11 for Europeans !

I think that might be a little Fokker.

The aircraft are RomBAC1-11s, license built in Brasov, Romania.

Only 9 ROMBAC 1-11 were built (two more were in production in 1989).

ROMBAC 1-11 was built in Bucharest (now ROMAVIA), not Brasov (now IAR)
