As far as I know there was a BAC1-11 on (R)IAT in 1993 and 2007. Those were 551 and 552. So never seen 553 over there.
And that's the only one still flying. So I hope they'll send a BAC 1-11. It's probably one of the last chances to see one flying!

That's because the FRIAT members (friends of RIAT) get to hear it first.
This info was probably taken from a UK message board.

Indeed, see here:
