Randolph Fields (born 29 December, 1952 Santa Monica California, died 24 February 1997 Jersey, Channel Islands) was an Anglo American lawyer who founded British Atlantic Airways which would later become Virgin Atlantic Airways. Ousted as chairman of Virgin Atlantic in 1985, Fields walked away a sterling millionaire and subsequently invested much of his fortune in the short lived Highland Express Airways.

Renowned in insurance circles as an expert on asbestos and environmental hazards coverage, his work involved weekly trans atlantic commuting where he took full advantage of lifetime complimentary upper class travel on Virgin Atlantic, long after being bought out.

Fields had an identical twin brother Robbie Fields, owner of Posh Boy Records.
