Description
Did a flight today with the (newish) SAAB JAS-39 Gripen or Griffin for you English speakers. Now normally I'm not much of a fan of modern fighter jets but this and the Eurofighter Typhoon got my attention with their Cunard design. I think the Gripen takes it a step further by having the Cunard on the engine intakes. In this flight I took the Gripen from the home of British aviation at Farnborough up to Duxford and then to the West and the Mach Loop and RAF Valley in Wales.
