Default Saab 340b

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of a systems manual for the Saab 340b. Just got hired on at Colgan, and have 3 weeks till my start date. Thanks

Don't sweat it. Just wait until Class. They'll give you everything you need. Don't worry. The SAAB is complex, but EY will help you through it. He's an awesome instructor and knows that plane inside and out.

Additionally, a lot of airlines make their own manuals for the aircraft which may, surprisingly, have different information in them.

I can wihtout a doubt guarantee AA's MD-80 manual and DL's MD-80 manual are mutually exclusive.

Uhh, I was advocating waiting until ground school to worry about manuals.

The manuals I studied before 737 school actually hurt rather than helped because our airline-specific manuals were different.

Thanks I guess I'll just wait it out and relax for 3 weeks! Probably take my ATP written then.

Will you have to do a sim ride, or have you taken one with this Regional before class starts?
