Saab stopped making the 2000 in 1999, but plenty still fly. Fast, quiet, and extremely comfortable for a turboprop.
Fun fact
The Saab 2000 is one of the fastest turboprops ever built, cruising at 370 knots.
How to spot one
Low-wing, long fuselage turboprop. Larger than Saab 340. Very rare — only 63 ever built.
Crews call it
The Big Saab
Sounds like
AE 2100 props are fast-spinning and high-pitched — fastest turboprop of its era
