C&L Aviation Group has signed an agreement to market Sweden-based Täby Air Maintenance’s (TAM’s) Saab 340B Cargo Conversions in the Americas. As part of the agreement, C&L is also an approved sales and installation center. TAM’s EASA- and FAA-approved cargo conversion STC is well-proven and provides a highly cost-effective way to convert this fuel-efficient passenger aircraft into a profitable freighter, capable of carrying 1,280 cu ft of cargo.
“I am just as pleased as I am thrilled by this partner agreement with C&L,” says Pär Gulle, TAM CEO. “With TAM located in Sweden, having very good relations to the manufacturer Saab, and well-known C&L strategically located on the US east coast, I see the combined strength of our respective organizations gives us a unique opportunity to serve the global market need for premium cargo conversions of the vast Saab 340-fleet.”
“We researched the available options in the market, and found working with TAM made perfect sense, not only because of the quality of the conversion kit, but because working with a consistent model throughout the world helps to preserve the integrity and value of the Saab fleet,” said C&L CEO Chris Kilgour.
