Programme
Development of this current version of the Jetstream was launched by British Aerospace on 5
December 1978. A development aircraft (G-JSSD), converted from a Jetstream 1 built by
Handley Page, flew for the first time on 28 March 1980. Full production go-ahead was given
in January 1982, and the first production Jetstream 31 (G-TALL) made its first flight on 18
March 1982. On 29 June 1982, the Jetstream 31 was certified to BCAR Section D in the UK.
US certification under SFAR 41C followed on 30 November 1982. German (LBA)
certification was gained in July 1983, Australian (DOA) certification in February 1984,
Swedish (BCA) in December 1984, Dutch (RLD) in January 1985 and Canadian (TC) in May
1987. First deliveries, to customers in Germany and the UK, took place in December 1982,
and the 200th delivery was made on 3 October 1988.

JANE_S_AIRCRAFT_UPGRADES/jau_1145.htm

Type
Twin-turboprop regional transport aircraft.

Programme
First details of the 340, then called Saab-Fairchild 340, were announced January 1980 and the
go-ahead on joint design, development, manufacture and marketing was given in September
1980. Saab took complete control of the programme in November 1985 and Fairchild
continued as a subcontractor until 1987, when the designation was changed to Saab 340.
        The first prototype (SE-ISF) made the first flight on 25 January 1983. The fourth (first
production) 340A (SE-E04) flew 5 March 1984. The USA and 10 European nations took part
in the joint certification process to FAR/JAR 25, resulting in Swedish certification May 1984
and virtually simultaneous certification by the other countries in June.
        The 340A first went into service, with Crossair, in June 1984 and the first in the USA
entered service in August that year. The first corporate 340A was delivered in November
1985. From mid-1985, engine power was increased from 1,215 kW (1,630 shp) to 1,294 kW
(1,735 shp) and propeller diameter was increased. Earlier aircraft were retrofitted. An
improved cabin with new lining and larger overhead bins, plus improved fittings, was
introduced in mid-1988. It was designed and fitted by Metair Aircraft of the UK, meeting the
FAA fire resistance standards that became mandatory August 1990.
        The 340B hot-and-high version was announced late 1987 and replaced the 340A on the
production line from c/n 160. It was certificated on 3 July 1989 and the first aircraft was
delivered to Crossair in September 1989. By 1 February 1991, firm orders for the 340A and B
totalled 354, of which more than half were for US customers and the rest for Europe,
Australia, Southeast Asia and South America. The 200th 340 was handed over 14 August
1990, and a total of 229 340As and 340Bs had been delivered by 31 March 1991. The Saab
board of directors decided to terminate the programme by mid-1999.

Upgrades
Ultra Electronics: Installation of Active Noise Control (ANC) systems as retrofit
programme. See separate entry in UK section.

Programme
Development of this current version of the Jetstream was launched by British Aerospace on 5
December 1978. A development aircraft (G-JSSD), converted from a Jetstream 1 built by
Handley Page, flew for the first time on 28 March 1980. Full production go-ahead was given
in January 1982, and the first production Jetstream 31 (G-TALL) made its first flight on 18
March 1982. On 29 June 1982, the Jetstream 31 was certified to BCAR Section D in the UK.
US certification under SFAR 41C followed on 30 November 1982. German (LBA)
certification was gained in July 1983, Australian (DOA) certification in February 1984,
Swedish (BCA) in December 1984, Dutch (RLD) in January 1985 and Canadian (TC) in May
1987. First deliveries, to customers in Germany and the UK, took place in December 1982,
and the 200th delivery was made on 3 October 1988.
