Saab 340B   


The Saab 340B introduced a number of significant changes over the Saab 340A including the installation of more powerful engines, a higher maximum take-off weight and a larger span tailplane to permit a wider centre of gravity range. Crossair was the first customer, receiving its first 340B in 1989. Production ended in 1998.
