Production:

                      146-300 , 71 examples had been built when production ceased in early 1993. The BAe-146 family, is likely to remain Britain's most successful jet transport program, with 395 built In August 1973 the then Hawker Siddeley Aviation. The 146-300 is a further stretched derivative of the original short fuselage BAe-146-100, but unlike the midsize 200 series, was not developed until later in the 1980s. The 146-300, an aerodynamic prototype based on the original prototype 146-100. Like the 146-200, a freighter version of the 300 series is known as the 146-300QT Quiet Trader. The prototype -300 was converted to 146-301ARA configuration, an atmospheric research aircraft operated by the Facility for Airborne Atmospheric Measurements as a replacement for the previously operated Hercules W2, The last

of the original 146s were built in 1993, with the series succeeded by the Avro 146-RJ family.
