Airbus A320
Suriname Air is fictional but the logo and livery are heavily inspired by Surinam Airways. Note however that Suriname Airways never operated the A320 in its own livery, only occasionally chartering them from other airlines.
Ep. 1
British Aerospace Jetstream 3201
False registration HZ860. Actually HI860, c/n 944 built in 1991 of Air Century.
Ep. 2
Cessna 208B Grand Caravan
Ep. 2
False Colombian registration HK5119. Probably a slightly altered South Korean Caravan, however the most likely candidate, registration HL5119, has a noticeably different livery and registration font.
Ep. 3
False Colombian registration HK5416. Supposed to be at a Suriname Air Force Base, but the establishing shot is of La Isabela International Airport (JBQ/MDJB) in the Dominican Republic. Further, the aircraft is most likely actually registration HL5116, c/n 208B1122, meaning the rest of the scene must have been filmed in South Korea.

Airbus A300B4-103
Ep. 3
False registration PY-PMB and fictional Suriname Air livery. Supposed to be at Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport in Suriname. Actually registration HL7219, c/n 16 built in 1975. Preserved at the Korean Air training facility at Jeongseok Airport (JDG/RKPD) since 1998. It was likely digitally reskinned for the show, but its original Korean registration can be briefly glimpsed on the underside of the wing.
In the background at right of this first shot, we can see Lockheed C-121A Constellation HL4003, also preserved at Jeongseok.
