I just looked up the fleet age and it varies between 27-35 years, with most 340B airframes being built around 1996, so roughly 28 years old. This doesn't tell the full story obviously, as actual operating hours can vary wildly depending on use. It's possible some of the younger airframes are approaching EOL through excessive operating hours, while the oldest aircraft may still have a decade of life left in it.
