The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has approved the Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) from Täby Air Maintenance (TAM) for converting the Saab 2000 into a freighter configuration, known as the Saab 2000(F) Cargo. Jetstream Aviation Capital announced this milestone, which follows earlier approval by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
This approval marks a key step in expanding Jetstream’s regional freighter investment platform. As the launch customer, Jetstream is positioned to accelerate placements in North America, where demand for such aircraft is strong. The Saab 2000 Cargo introduces a modern, high-performance turboprop freighter to Jetstream’s portfolio.
TAM’s STC enables the transformation of the high-speed regional airliner into a cargo variant, featuring six net-divided loading bays that meet 9G approval requirements, in addition to existing passenger aircraft cargo compartments. The development underscores Jetstream’s leadership in next-generation regional cargo solutions.
With FAA validation now in place, Jetstream can advance its strategic vision, supporting growth in the regional freight market.
