I recall being in a school biology lesson when this noisily arrived in the Southend circuit on 13.6.67 - we all ran to the windows and forgot about reproduction or whatever. A total of 661 "Flygande Tunnan" ("Flying Barrels") were built from 1950 to 1956, the largest production run for any SAAB aircraft. An English test pilot described it as "on the ground an ugly duckling - in the air, a swift". Eventually displayed in the HAM which closed in 1982, 29640 landed up in the MAM at Coventry

Sweden's ELINT cover was provided by a couple of ex-SAS Caravelles till Gulfstreams took over in the late 1990s. This one was originally SE-DAG, from 12.64 to 11.70. Note the nose and pannier modifications

Undoubted star of RAF Northolt Charity Night-shoot XIV was this 48 year-old Sabreliner from Malmen AB, Linköping. Used as a testbed for electronics including ultra-wideband ground surveillance synthetic aperture radar, it usually carries long probes, removed for flights over FL22. Acquired in 1980 and only flown for around 20 hrs p/a, a rare appearance indeed outside Sweden, a 6-stop trip to Thailand being one of few other foreign flights. A sister-ship (86002) was retired in 2005, now a ground trainer

An extraordinary feature of the expanded Flygvapenmuseum, opened on 12.6.10, are these Dakota remains. On 13.6.52, exactly 48 years before this photo, it was shot down over the Baltic by Soviet fighters while on a secret ELINT mission, checking installations in what are now Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Two Catalinas deployed on SAR after the incident were also attacked by Mig-15s. The Soviets denied the shoot-down till 1991 and the wreckage was not found until 2003

At the time operated by F 7 at Såtenäs, this early Viggen ended up on the dump at Ängelholm after instructional use in F 10 marks. The AJ37 was a single-seat ground-attack fighter aircraft, with a secondary fighter role, many undergoing electronic upgrades around 1992 to AJS37 in order to carry Sidewinder missiles. Most decommissioned by 1998

During 1953 a standard Varsity from the production run of 163, WJ900, was selected for conversion at Hurn to Sigint capability for Sweden (and was replaced by an extra aircraft for the RAF, XD366). Two Canberras were also obtained for similar purposes. The arrival of two Caravelles in 1971 rendered these aircraft obsolete and the Varsity was fortunately set aside for preservation, along with one of the Canberras

A very fine sight indeed, this was the last J35J delivered to the Swedish AF, and is now the only remaining flying example of the incredible Draken, seen here resplendent in F10 marks. The small tail wheels touched the ground first!

Designated Sk14 in Sweden, the NA-16 advanced trainer was the progenitor of the famous AT-6 Texan / Harvard - note smaller engine, mixed construction and rounded rudder. Landing gear was fixed. This is an impressive reconstruction from an Australian CA-7 Wirraway, A20-223, and a Canadian NA-64 Yale.

Seen here on skis, the C.V was the most succesful military Fokker aircraft of the interwar years. This example was licence-built here at Malmen in 1934.

Designed by Ernst Heinkel and first flown in 1914, the Albatros B.II was the main German reconnaissance aircraft early in WWI, despite the poor view for the observer who sat in the front cockpit. It was also an important trainer. One B.II was interned in Sweden at the outbreak of the war, and the design was copied and manufactured by several Swedish companies.
