It’s not everyday that you get to see one of these at your local airport! A lovely sight to see at Teesside with the Saab J-35 on a fuel stop before leaving for an airshow down South of the UK. The aircraft comes past and departs off runway 05 before heading North. Thanks for watching!

  1. Världens tuffaste jaktflygplan är från Sverige. Even in the 80s and 90s when the Danish air force had acquired the F-16 as the primary jet fighter, there was a saying among fighter pilots 'You're not a real jet fighter pilot before you have flown the Draken.' Drakens were in the RDAF inventory from 1971 to 1993.

  2. It was the last fighter plane from SAAB that was calculated with a "Rye stick"!
    Viggen as followed the Draken was more calculated with early computers.

    Question:
    Is always computers the best!?

  3. That ticks a LOT of boxes for me. Thanks for posting this. I had an Uncle & Aunt who lived outside Yarm, when we visited in the 1970's would regularly see Vulcans (presumably out of Finningley) and, oddly, lots of Hunters overhead – well that's what my memory tells me.

    Cheers from NZ.
