On April 1, 2006, three AgustaWestland A109Es joined 32 (TR) Squadron replacing a similar number of Eurocopter AS355F-1s. The new type can fly faster and further, and seat more passengers.

All three types currently operated by 32 (TR) Squadron - BAe146 CC.2, HS.125 CC.3 and AgustaWestland A.109E - are illustrated in this photograph at their home base of RAF Northolt.

A BAe146 is bathed in light at its home base of RAF Northolt. The type has proved particularly useful for operating in the 'hot and high' conditions found in Afghanistan in the summer months.

BAe146s are the largest aircraft operated by RAF Northolt-based 32 (TR) Squadron. The unit's aircraft carry subtle squadron marks in the form of three diagonal white stripes on the cheatline and a small badge.

Prior to March 31, 1995, the Queen's Flight was the dedicated unit for flying members of the royal family. This BAe146 of the aforementioned unit is pictured at East Midlands Airport in 1992, note the royal standard flying above the forward fuselage.

This HS.125 illustrates the colour scheme worn when the aircraft was with 32 Squadron, prior to the merger with the Queen's Flight.

Six HS.125s are operated by 32 (TR) Squadron and have been in service since 1982. Due to the UK’s military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan at least one of the type is always deployed to Bahrain to transport commanders and 'high value' personnel in and around these two theatres.
