AIR charter firm Oxford Aerocharter (Oxaero) bought a new executive jet at the Farnborough Airshow, writes Sarah Parker.

The new Cessna Citation Excel, which is expected to be delivered towards the end of next year, marks another stage in the company's expansion.

Oxaero has been trading as an executive air charter operator for more than 21 years.

Last year the firm, which is based at Oxford Airport, Kidlington, became the first charter company in the UK to operate the five-seater Cessna Citation Jet.
