Saab340B vs Saab340B plus Differences
 
Whats the difference? Engine? Wings? avionics? Any info would be helpful!

FMS, 4 ft longer wings, A/C

Longer wingspan, cabin noise canceling system.

AC? Hahahaha, maybe for the one seat below it in the back!

Not all B+ have the longer wings. 420XJ in Dulles does not have longer wings.

Never flew a Saab B or B+ that had FMS.
Never flew a B+ that didn't have the longer wing.
The noise canceling in the B+ was always deferred.

The difference between the two is a few knots on speeds, a little better climb, and roll control is lighter in the B+. Everything thing else is probably the same as a B.

YMMV

Does that answer really make any sense to you? It shouldn't, because it's wrong.

On second thought, assuming Saab would do things in a way that makes the most sense would be a good quick way of failing the systems test.
