SWEET! Been wanting this one for a while now.

Ed Kooymans made some flight plans for a few of the Swedish Saabs a while back and put them on avsim. I will have to download them now that there is a good model and paints for them.

I admit that I never thought I would see an AI model of the SF340 with a roof rack, maybe there is hope for all the other military offshoots like the KC30/KC330.

We've got plans just waiting to go if I could ever get around to finishing the Swedish package.

I would like to see the Australian Air Force Wedgetail and the Israel Air Force Eitam.

I hear that, lots of other things as well. Trouble is that Henry T seems to have departed the scene and he is the one with the base Gulfstreams, likewise we would need Craig Ritchie to do the 737 derivatives.

However it would be nice if a trend started.

The Australian Wedgetail is present in the VOZ RAAF AI package... (Ai version)

Am I rading this right? There will be flightplans available soon for these new Saabs? If that is correct I will not use Ed kooymans plans (they are very old) and will wait for newer plans.

Use Ed's for now, when ours are ready, then you can switch them out, it won't be for a while.

Post by **BadPvtDan** » 05 Apr 2009, 04:36

Yeah it's only been in development for a year or so

MIKE JG · Post by **MIKE JG** » 05 Apr 2009, 05:19

A year and 5 months, but who's counting....

Actually Marten Weber just up loaded flightplans for these Saabs on avsim. (svf-mw.zip)

I doubt you will see any 737 derivatives from me, i haven't even made any 737's

My apologies, Craig. For some inexplicable reason, I got you mixed up with David

.
Thanks for the model anyway.

Does anyone have or know where I can find AFCADs for where these planes are based? (Im not exactly sure where these planes are based)

davidbernard · Post by **davidbernard** » 07 Apr 2009, 06:26

They are based at Malmslätt (Linköping-Malmen) (ESCF). I consider making an afcad in the next few days.

Hi Joseph,

The Swedish Air Force S 100B and D Argus

"Flygburenspaningsradardivisionflygenhet" (AEW division)

Malmslätt AFB (Linköping-Malmen) (ESCF)

F17M "Bravalla" Flygflottilj (wing).

I have looked for a AFCAD at a number of FS sites including FS Sweden without finding one.

I looked on Google Earth which has a good image of the base but no S 100's appear to be on the ramps.
But you could still download AFCAD 2.21 from avsim and try making your own.

Regards,
Steve.
