Saab340 conversion to EASA standard
Hi all, I am in the mist of acquiring a Saab340 aircraft from a foreign operator. As the current operator cannot deliver the aircraft in EASA/FAA standard (only local standard), I am starting to wonder if this deal should go on any further.
I know that there have been numerous transactions in the past whereby the country Saab340 were acquired by foreign parties so it should not necessarily be a showstopper.
I need to find out other than doing the CofA for the aircraft, what the (high level) modification requirements, what the cost implications, what the possible downtime consequences are, etc.

You Said It
I think you have answered your own question, sir: if the aircraft cannot be certified - as-is - in your operating area, how much can you afford and how much downtime will you accept for modifications? Only you can provide those answers. At least you are thinking, before plunking down your cash!
