Sorry for my grammar and spelling but I just wanted to say that it was fantastic flying and filming. Im happy to see people in other countrys apreceating what SAAB has built. Have a grate day!

What a strange landing gear! As if it wants to be a runway debris vacuum! Lovely work all round.

The Tunnan is one of my all time favorite jets. I've wanted to design and build one for EDF for ages.

I have to say, I love the way you keep the plane in view. You have incredible tracking abilities with a camera… Love it.

Excellent landing with the gear stuck halfway down like that. Sucks about the crash but it looks easily fixable. That beauty needs to be back in the air.

The very beginning looks like I was looking at a real one (size). WOW I though maybe this was 1/4 scale size. The poor thing in the end I hope it wasn't too serious. I love the Tunnans, so cute!

Cool! M.A.N. sent me. Congrats to builder/flyer. Dang gravity! Nice camera work Bruce!

What's amazing to me is that no matter the real machine or the scale model machine, it's all built by hand to extremely tight tolerances. Beautiful machine-- great camera lock too!

Great choice of model. I saw one of these at a flying display a few years ago (along with a Viggen, also impressive). I was stunned by what a nimble and manoevrable little airplane it was - very impressive and I fell in love with it straight away. It looks so cool in plan view with those 'Mig 15' looking wings

Truly beautiful model. Thanks for sharing it, it was a pleasure to see her fly.

You are amazing at following the aircraft and making these great videos, It's not easy.

Great video Bruce, no shaky hands. Well done. An unusual plane indeed. Only 6 months build? Well that wheel must be put back on again. ✌️

When I was a kid occasionally I could see one flying.

This makes me want to look up a flying model C17 video. Just a giant thick plane.

Excellent work and a stunning model. Your videos are one of the highlights of my week.

Sweet jet, NZ has some excellent scale modelers.

Anekdote from a pilot of a J29 back in the day: (as recollected from reading it) This pilot were taking part in an exercise were he would act as a single "aggressor", with the stated task of attacking a ground target. As such he were to expect to encounter J32B fighters en route. After some time, he saw something in the rearview mirror, and immidiately started to fly defensively, turning and jinking. The thing was, that it didn't matter what kind of manouvers he pulled, the advesary stuck to his six through all of his attempts to loose him. Then he realised that it was not a fighter outside, but an ordinary fly sitting on the mirror. As fighter pilots tends to think of themselfs as test-pilots, he of course could do nothing but postulate a question on how many G's, this fly could withstand before loosing its adherence to the mirror surface. So he started to test his postulated question... Later back at the base, the mechanics grew more and more perturbed, as they found wrinkles and cracks where none should be expected.

Yeah draken and tunnan are my two favorite Swedish planes

Bruce, You make the BEST videos!!

These sudden bursts of gravity cause havoc!

Yes its not main stream but does hold presence in the air and well done to select such a plane. Portly and close to the ground makes for a precision landing, wonder it did not have a bumper at the rear to ensure the fuse did not scrape, real one that is. Pity it lost a wheel..

Crosswind landings with these was killing some pilots in the early days... The swept wings was a novelty at the time and in combination with the barrel shaped body it resulted in the leeward wing losing lift very quickly if the speed was low. By the way... "Tunnan" means "The Barrel" in swedish...

Amazing photography.

I saw one of these in a museum in sweden back in 2011. Bought a little 1/72 model of it. A lovely little plane!

Great video Bruce. I hoped you'd missed my last landing but no chance lol.

Looks interesting for sure bro. Thanks for showing. Safe travels

Great workmanship.

I was expecting a tail strike with that dumpy little undercarriage, what a great landing! (The first time...) Second time it landed more like I was expecting from a flying pig ;-)

Awesome footage Bruce! Nice work!

Great build.

Well done sir!

IT WAS A " GUST OF GRAVITY " I will use this one often...lol

I see "landed" in thumbnail and know there was a crash 🤣

The wheel tried to get back into place.

When do you do a Video on Tracking R/C Aircraft in the Edit.

Wow!

“Gust of gravity”

Great camera work Bruce! Beautiful model! Why'd he try to land it on the grass?

with all of that detail and attention to function, they need to quit being called models and be known as Scaled Replicas, the word models just doesnt give them the respect they deserve.

What a sick looking airplane, Bruce! Fantastic! 😮 Thanks a bunch for sharing!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Ron's flyin again! 🤣

Real nice video Bruce. By-the-way how are feeling? I will keep you in my prayers. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Really nice aircraft, but the gyro does nothing for the smoothness of 'natural' flight - it looks as if it's teetering on the top of a pin all the time.

Is it me or did the pilot look too small scalewise?

Hi Bruce, a completely left field comment. Star Trek Voyager, series 5, episode 4. I'm sure you'll be able to identify the "holographic imager."

The jet seems a bit unstable , in some of the turns it looks like it has some wiggle side to side.

jet people seem kind of snobby? and I could tell from the beginning that that landing gear was coming off sooner or later

6 right hand turns and it’s over 😆 i would hate to fly line of sight I’d rather just not fly personally

Is flying heavily pregnant really advisable?

Russian invasion of the go cart or dirt bikes,...Take Cover.

Very stubby plane🤔🤔🤔
