X-man Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 (edited) Gothenburg (Sweden) AeroShow 2008, mostly old stuff, but the Gripen was also there :) Here's some of the pics I took. A Swedish "Tiger Moth", landing after a Overhead pattern JAS 39B "Gripen" and some of its weapons Single-seat "Gripen" J 29 "Flying Barrel" SAR Helicopter, simulating a rescue :) One of the few Russian planes at the Airshow, Yak-55 Hawker "Hunter" With 4 x 30mm cannons Saab J 32 "Lansen" And a nice "Mustang". Spitfire was also present, but I didn't get a good shot of it. "Gripen" taxing out for its display :) Tight turn with AB active :) Doing the standard high-alpha/low-speed pass. The speed is at 180kph ;) Pilot waving after the show :D Hope you enjoyed them! :) Cheers Edited September 2, 2008 by X-man 3 64th Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 135.181.115.54
