Warbirds and Vintage Aircraft over Sweden (air-to-air)
Warbirds and Vintage Aircraft over Sweden (air-to-air)
Hi all,
Some air-to-airs of historic stuff in Sweden from recent years:
4 x Saab Safir
2 x Harvard/Texan
Supermarine Spitfire
A-26 Inavder
Klemm 35
P-51 Mustang
Saab B 17
I have recently put together an illustrated book (yes a real one, printed on paper ) on the subject, called Warbirds and Vintage Aircraft over Sweden (titled “Flygande klassiker” in Swedish). Close to 400 photos included – many of them air-to-air. Summaries and captions are in English. The book may be a bit pricey with international shipping, but for anyone with interest in this specific topic - check it out. Read more and see how you can order it at http://www.daniel-k.com/flygandeklassiker
If you're into Facebook, see http://www.facebook.com/flygandeklassiker for more photos.
Cheers, Daniel

Stunning set of photos!
The Spitfire and Invader shots are sublime!
You could always post a few more for our appreciation! Any Viggens/Drakens by any chance?!

Thanks guys. Yes that is the ex-SHF Invader 'Sugarland Express' now with Nordic Warbirds.
The Draken/Viggen are a bit too modern for this specific project as I focus on pre 1950 designs - but maybe in the future...

First class set of photos. Another vote for the Spitfire and Invader photos. Absolutely gorgeous.
Re: Warbirds and Vintage Aircraft over Sweden (air-to-air)
Wonderful set. I imagine the book is well worth it!

Re: Warbirds and Vintage Aircraft over Sweden (air-to-air)
What a fine set of images, absolutely beautiful aircraft that arguably rivals the UK warbird scene

Many thanks!
Sorry for the very compressed quality of the photos, I did a quickie and just linked them from my Facebook page.
If you like some more moving action, here is a short movie with air-to-air footage from the making of the book:
