Christoffer Lindelav Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 A 1/32nd J-29 !Yay, lycklig som fan (happy as hell, for all you non-Swedish speaking folk ) NMF with Swedish markings, lovely! David66, you´re a Swede? Just asking out of curiosity. And I couldn´t agree more about the SAAB 105 (and all other SAAB aircraft, of course). /Stoffe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely the best years of my life, loved the country, the people and always regretted leaving. Speaking of SAAB aircraft, I always remember seeing a Viggen do a short landing followed by a turn around and takeoff at an airshow in Ronneby. What made it even more impressive, apart from the noise, was the fact that it was hammering down with rain at the time so when he landed, pretty much all we could see was the nose of the aircraft followed by a huge cloud of vapour. The aircraft slowed down, did a 180 degree turn and took off again, his afterburner lit up the vapour cloud he'd left behind! Hands down on of the most impressive things I've ever seen.

David66 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 NMF with Austrian markings! By all means put Austrian markings on yours ! However, for me, it has to be those blue roundels with yellow stars......... Although I could be tempted to make 'what-if' version in USAF markings with Korean war yellow/black bands around the wings and fuselage.

ssculptor Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 The SAAB J-29B and the FW 59 Stosser in 1/32 scale. Zuperduper!! We shall forgive them for not bringing out the Japanese Val and Kate. After all, what do Europeans know about beautiful aircraft?

Oh so you speak Swedish after being here for only five years, that´s impressive. People can stay here for decades and never bother to pick up the language because most Swedes speak English. But you can always return to Sweden you know... I have also seen Viggen do that same manouver you told but never in the rain as you said, that must have been awesome. Have also seen Viggen in pairs many times flying by the house during the 80´s and 90´s. And last summer a pair of Gripens flew by just over my house, a rare sight these days. Also been fortunate to see the only flying example of Tunnan at an airshow some years ago. /Stoffe David66 and Cees Broere 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christoffer Lindelav Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Yellow stars?? You mean crowns, don't you? Tre Kronor! Yes! As Ray says it´s Tre Kronor. It´s good you guys know the Swedish lingo. /Stoffe David66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David66 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Yellow stars?? You mean crowns, don't you? Tre Kronor! Yes, indeed I did mean crowns, obviously had some kind of brain-fart when posting my comment, possibly because I had this image of the USAF 'what-if' version in my head at the time !

I'm a bit embarrassed about how lazy we English are when it comes to learning foreign languages pretty much every Swedish person I knew could speak three languages ! I remember the first time I saw a flight of Viggens flying fairly low, over my home in Orminge, I called my dad pretty much immediately to tell him. I even saw some Drakens, although they might not have been Svenska Flygvapnet aircraft, too far away to see the insignia but, unfortunately, never any Gripens or Tunnans. As for moving back, well, I could be seriously tempted.....
