The only example of the BAe 146-300 operated by Jet2, in a special livery known as “Newcastle to Gatwick”, or alternatively “Gatwick to Newcastle”.

Do note that on the left side of the airframe (Image 1), the aft fuselage displays “Gatwick to Newcastle” whereas the tail displays “Newcastle to Gatwick”.
The right side of the airframe (Image 2) features such advertisements in the opposite order.
Why should this livery be added?
This aircraft’s history was explained more in detail in my preceding B463 - Jet2 suggestion, but just to recap:
G-FLTC was a BAe 146-300 leased out by Jet2 for use across a short time period spanning approximately April 2006 to May 2007 - and remains the only example of a BAe 146 operated by Jet2.In March 2007, during the aircraft’s second and final lease to Jet2, this aircraft sported the special livery shown above, meant to promote Jet2’s acquiring of the Newcastle to London Gatwick route from British Airways. This aircraft had the special livery likely for the rest of the time it was with Jet2 - more specifically a time period consisting of around 2 months, until it went back to its original operator (Flightline) in May.
Now, as was said in the preceding suggestion, it would be a very unique addition and would also make for an amazing event arrival, as G-FLTC had the unique status of being the only aircraft of its type operated by Jet2.
Adding this special livery would only further add to recognizing G-FLTC’s unique status and short yet notable time with the airline, alongside representing a nice little bit of history and providing more event material for Jet2 - or really Europe in general.(More details about G-FLTC can be found in the original B463 Jet2 suggestion, linked above.)
