BANGOR, Maine – C&L Aerospace, a C&L Aviation Group company, has signed a contract for the sale of 6 Saab 340 Aircraft to Legends Airways. C&L, who is converting all 6 aircraft for freighter operations, has delivered the first 2 aircraft, with the remaining 4 being delivered by the end of 2021. C&L is also supporting Legends with parts and technical expertise.
“We came to C&L not only because they had the aircraft inventory we needed, but also because they have the in-depth knowledge and experience needed to support the Saab 340,” said Jon Hierl, CEO of Legends Airways. “It just made sense to partner with the world’s leader in Saab 340 sales and support.”
The Saab 340 is a versatile aircraft in either passenger or cargo configuration. That, combined with the aircraft’s superior performance in its class, makes it a popular aircraft for operators around the world.
“We have been very pleased to work with Legends and assist them in the successful launch of these aircraft,” said C&L CEO Chris Kilgour. “Our commitment to be a one-stop solution for Saab operators has made us an ideal partner to meet Legends’ requirements.”
For over 20 years, C&L has been a leader in the aftermarket sale and support of the Saab aircraft. The company stocks Saab inventory in their globally located warehouses and provides a one-stop solution for operators at the MRO facility offering heavy maintenance, aircraft paint, avionics upgrades, structural modifications, engineering support, and interior refurbishment.
