Ask the LAME (or anyone), can the Saabs be kept flying for 10 more years?

With the Air T deal seeming a dead certainty, I am curious if the Saabs can be kept flying for the following reasons:
1. While the engines are robust, the airframes will have been through many pressure cycles., does the cost of maintenance to address the airframes make sense?
2. Do Australia have the MRO resources and staffing to keep about 59 Saabs flying (Rex and Link)?
Any insights would be appreciated as I am interested to see if another fix is needed.

While the engines are robust

Err, that’s the main reason REX are in the mess they are in

Is the problem for the engines the time between overhauls is too short, parts or no-one to do it? I guess I should add everything listed.
