Amazing set showing a very detailed day, many thanks for posting !
I'm sure i've seen one before, but i'd have been very young and can't really remember. Hopefully it'll make a RIAT one year.

Re: Welcome back to the skies Viggen!
What a delight to see some classic 'heavy metal' preserved and flying! Oh how much I'd love to see it come to the UK...

Wow, lovely. Already 2 years have gone by since it was first announced to be "back in service".
Re: Welcome back to the skies Viggen!
Ett stort tack för att vi som bor nära Ljungbyhed fick se Jas39 Gripen och de gamla historiska planen en gång till. Speciellt trevlig med ett SK16,vilket är det enda som jag har flugit med, det var ens s.k. muckflygning 1960.

A quick translation:
Thanks for posting, Bo
A big thank you to the people who live near Ljungbyhed saw JAS39 Gripen and the old historic plane again. Especially nice with a SK16, which is the only thing that I have flown with, it was even called [img]muck%20flying[/img] 1960th
