Nice one's, Marty: is that the SU-27? Next to the Foxbat, the '27 is my fav Rusky kite. Have always been fascinated by the Swedes and those canards they have up by the cockpit - presumably those are fixed as opposed to the Eurofighter's being moveable? And which actual Saab is that? The one I'm most familiar with is the Viggen.

Great shots Splitty, Love the JA37! Which model is that? I've been flying in Sweden the last couple of days, but I've only flown the excellent freeware J35 Drakken package.

Island boy, the canards are fixed, but they have "elevators" on the trailing for take-off and landing performance. Another couple of interesting facts about the JA37 Viggen, is that the engine is a PW JT8D, found on the 727, 737, DC-9, with a Swedish afterburner fitted, and the required runway length is only 500m!

Who makes the best FSX SU? I have the AFS Mig29 and they have an SU but there's another out there? Splitpin, you're becoming another 'Bug' - consistently good. Do something bad so I can generate some smart remarks laugh.gif.

Thanks guys but FEX did most of the work.
@Dave.....re Bug, Ive got a long way to go to reach that level. You have to be honest, his shots are very complex most of the time....mine are just based on what i love...clouds and light....but thanks for the compliment Dave.
