340B+ DELIVERIES

Now going with the smaller aircraft. The two latest ex American Eagle Saab 340B's (+) for Regional Express - REX.

N389AE - VH-ZRB
N388AE - VH-ZRZ

With the continual delivery of these upgraded planes (one every month), REX withdrew 340B VH-OLN (207) from service on Feb 8th for spare parts.

340A UPGRADES

The oldest SF340A VH-KDB (008) was stripped of its (very) old paint and repainted and fully refurbished and upgraded over the summer holidays. It now has a new leather interior and looks brand new again inside and out.

Phil.l,

The Saabs operate out of any base. It all depends on where they are needed around the network. I'm sure Adam will have some more solid info, but expect to see ZRB on any sector.

As Dave pointed out, they shuffle around the network frequently. ZRB is currently showing WGA-SYD-WGA shuttles for the next few days... all, of course, subject to change at a moment's notice...
