Well I dug out the old 2k2 Grippen, and the only problem I have is the U/C not showing, otherwise still a damn fine aircraft. So off on dawn patrol 8)

Glad to be of service Craig. Hopefully next year I'll be getting to see a lot more of these for real as Hungary is getting a load to replace their Mig-29s :(

Grippen?
You probably mean SAAB JAS-39 Gripen?
Grip is swedish for Griffin :)
;D

Sweet pics nonetheless!

Fine plane. Fits perfectly into the family of great swedish airplanes,such as the Draken or Viggen (my favourite).  8)

hmmm.  Never seen that plane before!  Looks like a cross between the F16 and the Typhoon.

Boeing its the new Saab multi-role fighter. I saw the demonstration model flying last year at the Hungarian national airshow, and frankly my lower jaw was in the grass whilst I was watching it!!! Its gorgeous, looks good, and sounds better than anything any rock band has managed 8) 8) 8) 8)
