Dhl Sf340

[8inMan]

I was in BNA waiting for freight today when I saw a Saab 340 painted up in DHL colors. Anyone know what company that could have been?

I'm not trying to say you don't know your airplanes, but are you sure it was a SAAB? There doesn't seem to be any reference to any DHL-affiliated SAABs anywhere.

the only feeders that I know of flying in dhl colors are some c208s

Are there any DHL Convairs in the US?

I'm not sure if there still are, but there were a few until fairly recently.

There is an Embrarer maintenance facility in BNA which always has an abundance of Saabs and ERJ sitting on the ramp. Most from foreign carriers or obscure operators. There are often aircraft there that have a paint scheme that resembles more famaliar carriers. I have never seen or heard of a DHL Saab, but then again, you never know what your gonna see these days.

I think Murray Aviation out of YIP has a few.
