”We are a niche market
operator...the Saab 340
is a workhorse aircraft
and very reliable.”
Georg Pommer
Robin Hood Aviation
CEO
The flexible
performer
To safeguard against today’s rapidly changing environment and
improve profitability, successful airlines must choose an aircraft
that minimizes risk and is adaptable to an ever-changing market
environment. In addition, passengers demand comfort and service
similar to that offered by major carriers.
The Saab 340 is a favorite among airline passengers due to its
flexibility, comfort and reliable performance. With about half the
operating costs of a regional jet, the Saab 340 can offer service in a
variety of markets, large or small.
RELIABILITY IN A VARIETY OF OPERATIONS
The cost-effective Saab 340 consistently generates profits for a
wide range of regional air transport services. With the right blend
of technologies, the Saab 340 combines high productivity with
dependability.
THE “FACTS” @ 4Q – 2009
• 25-year track record
• best selling 30-seat turboprop
• more than 410 operational aircraft found
on six continents and in 30 countries
• over 13 million hours flown and an
estimated 250 million passengers
• consistent 99% dispatch reliability
• award winning customer support services

The big
airline choice

WORLD’S LARGEST 340BPlus OPERATOR
The red, white and blue Delta livery is replacing Northwest colors
on all aircraft and airport signage as the newly merged airline is
established in 2009.
Mesaba, the largest Saab 340Bplus operator in the world, has a long
history with Northwest and will now serve as a Delta Connection
carrier from Dallas, Memphis, Atlanta and intra-Florida routes.
Having revitalized the interiors of its 49-strong Saab 340Bplus fleet
with new leather seat cushions and carpet, Mesaba is repainting the
30-seaters in Delta livery.
”...our overall objective
is to provide a seamless
service product to our
passengers. We are stepping up our Saab cabins
to make sure the experience on the aircraft
is one that they want to
come back to.”
JOHN SPANJERS
MESABA AIRLINES
PRESIDENT
MESABA IN THE USA
Mesaba Aviation is a regional air carrier providing scheduled
passenger service as Mesaba Airlines/Northwest Airlink. Mesaba’s
continued growth and improved performance is linked to the
airline’s service to the Detroit, Minneapolis/St. Paul and Memphis
hubs.
A STANDARD PRODUCT
Mesaba selected the Saab 340 to standardize its fleet of 19- and
30-seat aircraft to meet planned growth. In choosing the Saab
340Bplus aircraft, the airline has realized the optimum combination
of superior operational and economic performance. The 34-seat
Saab 340Bplus permits year after year savings in crew training,
spares holdings and spare aircraft requirements while providing
maximum customer appeal, standardized scheduling and single
vendor sourcing.
“The 34-seat Saab
340Bplus’ in Mesaba’s
fleet are integral in
Northwest’s ability to
continue to serve the
smaller cities in our
heartland markets.”

LOW-FARE
OPERATOR
Flybe launched its 2008-09 winter schedule with franchise partner
Loganair offering a low-fare airline option for European travelers.
Glasgow-based Loganair repainted its fleet of 16 Saab 340s with the
Flybe livery taking a significant step for the Scottish regional airline.
The franchise is the first ever deal of its kind for a low-fare carrier and
is in line with Flybe’s strategy of continuing to build a market-leading
position as Europe’s largest regional airline following its acquisition of
Manchester, UK based BA Connect in 2008. “The franchise is a
win-win for both
airlines and sees the
realization of an
exciting development
in the evolution of the
low-cost model. Flybe
branded aircraft will
now be seen flying from
as far afield as the
Shetland Islands in the
north to Malaga in the
south.”
Mike Rutter
Flybe
Chief Commercial
Officer
”This is a significant
step for the company.
The move to become a
franchise partner with
Flybe provides a certain
future for the company.
The air service networks
of both airlines are
complEmentary, and
this deal will give our
customers a greater
choice of UK and European connections.”

The remote
airline choice
Spanning the globe, the Saab 340 is used by niche operators in the
most challenging environments from extreme cold to remote island
locations. Every operating environment presents a unique challenge
for the Saab 340.
“The Saab 340, with its
lower approach speeds
and GPS capability
along with waiting for
the always changing
weather in nearby Cold
Bay, have been the key
reasons the aircraft
has worked so well.”
DANNY SEYBERT
PENAIR
PRESIDENT
OPERATING IN ALASKA
An experienced cold weather operator, PenAir of Alaska, regularly
operates between the “soak and shake” climates of the temperate
wet Aleutian Islands into frozen Northern environments.
The PenAir aircraft have also safely operated in and out of gravel
runways since 1996.
flying in challenging environments
In another part of the world, the Argentine Air Force is using
the Saab 340B to serve remote areas in the Patagonia region of
southern Argentina. The aircraft feature gravel modification and
enhanced communications equipment, and meet the latest civilian
requirements for TCAS-II, TAWS, expanded DFDR and reinforced
cockpit doors.

The corporate
shuttle choice
ATTRACTING NEW CORPORATE CLIENTS
Many corporations have discovered the cost and time efficiencies of
running their own corporate shuttle.
A dedicated corporate shuttle aircraft provides a convenient service
to staff traveling between production sites and branch offices, while
reducing travel costs. It further optimizes the schedule by allowing
for increased work time at the destination and a return home for the
evening. The aircraft provides a high level of security allowing staff
to work on board in complete
privacy.
“The Saab 340 has been
a great aircraft for
us. The Parts Exchange
Program (PEP) has been
very helpful and costeffective and saves us a
lot of money.”
PRESTON MURRAY
NATIONAL AIRLINES
CEO
National Airline’s Saab 340
continues to provide reliable
and exclusive service for the
automotive industry. Located
all around the globe, mining
industry, electronic distributors,
other large corporations as
well as private shuttle services
benefit from the Saab 340’s
efficient services and passenger
friendly cabins as well.

”The Saab 340A cargo
aircraft fills a niche
between the Beech 1900C/
Fairchild Metro-style
and larger turboprops
like the Convair 580 or
Boeing 737/727 jet.”
The CARGO
option
The flexibility of the Saab 340 is highlighted by its various freight
forwarding applications in the worldwide market.
The cargo market has grown with over 40 Saab 340A Cargo aircraft
operating in the US, Canada, Mexico, Europe and Australia.
Operators such as IBC Airways of Miami, Florida, keeps its fleet of
Saab 340A Cargo aircraft busy flying with contractual work from
major freight forwarding integrators including DHL, FedEx and
UPS.
Bob Bateman
President
Prince Edward Air Ltd.
”The volume capability
on the Saab 340A lends
itself nicely to what we
do, which is the carriage
of packages which fit
into a payload of about
3,860 kgs.”

The 340Bplus–WT
hot and high performer
The Saab 340Bplus-WT provides improvements in hot and high
airfield environments, enhanced short field capabilities, and refined
passenger amenities.
“The Saab 340 is the ideal
turboprop aircraft for
today’s regional airline
environment. Its low
operating cost and fuel
efficient engines have
allowed us to become
one of the world’s most
profitable airlines.”

MILITARY VERSION
The Saab 340 provides a reliable and economic platform for various
operational uses by the armed services and government contracts.
Sweden and other European countries use a modified Swedish Air
Force Saab 340 for photographic reconnaissance operations. The
Swedish Defense Forces also flies the Saab 340B-AEW model for
military transport and related operations.
Japan Coast Guard operates four Saab 340SAR-200s in surveillance
operations from Kansai Airport in Osaka and Kagoshima Airport.
The Argentine Air Force selected the Saab 340B as its middle-size
transport aircraft to serve remote areas in the Patagonia region
in southern Argentina. The contract for four aircraft includes a
complete logistics package of spares, manuals, tools, ground support
equipment, training of pilots and mechanics.

“The Saab 340 is a good
platform for these
missions because it is
modern, provides a good
working environment
and is cost effective.
All this Open Skies
activity costs a lot
of money, so you can
reduce the cost of
flying hours with the
Saab 340.”
