Peruvian carrier Star Peru has acquired another pair of BAe 146s for its Lima-based operation. The latest additions are -200 variants, says BAE Systems and each is around 21 years old. They had previously been in service with North American operators. The airline already has six 146s, three Boeing 737-200s and several Antonov turboprops that it flies on domestic services and charters within South America.
