G-JOTE has now appeared on the British register in the name of Jota Aircraft Leasing. Ownership status shown on GINFO as "Owned". One day later (April 6) it departed for BRU still wearing ASL titling but UK registration.
No announcements from Jota so far about their new acquisition, which is unusual because they have generally been prompt with news on their social media pages

Good luck to them. I wonder whether the Albert route is to be done again this summer, will the 146 be used on that maybe? I seem to recall it usually started in June , which fits with the into service date, however a big jump in capacity (which I cannot imagine is needed on the route) from the previous BE90.

Answering my 10th April question, no Albert flights seem have been operated this summer, least of all by 146! Does anyone know if any cargo flights by JOTA 146 been operated as yet?

Not as yet no. A brief circuit was flown by G-JOTE a couple of days ago using the registration as its callsign.

From an impeccable source on pprune, the freighter operation is due to commence in October, with more crews coming on line in September.
Although the fourth aircraft has been delivered,so far only the first arrival (G-JOTE) is shown on GINFO as having a current ARC.

G-JOTF also carried out a short flight yesterday so it would appear Jota will have two QTs ready to start operations shortly.

Today's itinerary was actually SEN-DSA-BHX-OST-SEN.
Are we sure these last two days have been revenue flights - they look to me they might have been proving or training flights ?

They could have been proving/familiarisation flights as part of a contract that they have gained.

Jota's work for HOP appears to be continuing into the winter. The Pau programme has ceased but G-JOTS has moved base, complete with spares, to Strasbourg.
There has been no further activity by the QTs after the inaugural Poznan-Liverpool car parts charter on October 17 until today when G-JOTE has positioned to Bratislava
