Ok - any limitation on where the aircraft must operate?

If you can accept daylight VMC only - take the aircraft off IFR capability and tear out all instruments but those required for day VFR.

You have saved weight, mx cost and improved dispatch reliability tremendously. OK, you can only fly cargo in N Africa and the ME, but I bet your assignment didn't stipulate anything about that ;-)
