The outboard one looks like a Star Wars fighter!

My favorite warbird of all time.

stunning pic.

A visitor from Germany posted Sat March 7, 2009:
I like this jet!
Good shot!

A visitor from United States posted Fri June 6, 2008:
No war bird ever built has a more awesome outline than the Viggen. The bottom profile on the outboard bird captures this perfectly. Viggen, thy name is beauty. Thank you, Jan, for THIS memorable moment.

A visitor from United States posted Thu March 15, 2007:
Amazing. We get to see the top and bottom, nicely centered, clear and clean pic.

A visitor from United States posted Thu March 8, 2007:

"Fantastic shot but i wish air forces took a bit more pride in there apearance these to need a good scrub."

On the contrary, I think the worn appearance of the fighters gives this shot a lot of character and makes it much more interesting to look at. Gives it a real "Cold War" feel. If the planes were shiny and new-looking it would be a much less dramatic photo (relatively speaking). Nice work!

Just WOW. OMG, I'm gonna miss beautiful SAAB Viggen.

Lovely colours ,great sharpness ,action!

A visitor from United States posted Sun April 2, 2006:
Great ballance of both sides of a fantastic wing profile. Going to miss this baby! The background is pretty too. Good contrast with the snow.

A visitor from Sweden posted Sun March 26, 2006:
Reminds me I was skiing near Östersund and was lucky enough to see two of these pass by in the valley below me. Not THIS close though...

A visitor from Chile posted Mon March 6, 2006:
An incredible fighter. The Viggen, a cold war era fighter; a steel knight of the three crowns kingdom. Awesome.

A visitor from United States posted Wed March 1, 2006:
Now that IS a great air-to-air shot, not by some photographer renting a Cessna and flying over an airport 6000 feet above, taking takeoff or landing "air-to-ground" shots and saying that they are air to air. Good work, Jan, on a true great series of real air to air Photos!!!!

Simply Beautiful! I am very envious of you. I do air to air also but this is sublime! My hat is off to you!!

A visitor from Germany posted Tue January 31, 2006:
Wow... i love that pic. nice aircraft, nice landscape and lots of details visible :)

A visitor from Australia posted Mon January 30, 2006:
A timeless photo people could look at this photo 50 years from now and think it was just taken yesterday long live viggen...

A visitor from France posted Thu January 19, 2006:
You can do everything with Photoshop ! No, I'm just kidding... ^^ Great great shot, of one of my favorite aircraft.

Congratulations and thanks !

A visitor from Germany posted Wed January 18, 2006:
This should be in the Pirelli-calendar ;-) An unequalled shot, it's better than perfect.

A visitor from United States posted Fri January 6, 2006:
I love the A/C and the Background.

A visitor from Mexico posted Thu January 5, 2006:
Wow, what a beautiful close up, a good memory for this formidable and veteran fighter

A visitor from Slovakia posted Thu December 29, 2005:
Perfect clear photo of one of the most beautiful plane ever built and above beautiful country.
Simply - I like position of camera relatively to both planes, 2nd planes gives aspect of movement and background gives you feeling of fly.

Bye Viggen

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Thu December 22, 2005:
Fantastic shot but i wish air forces took a bit more pride in there apearance these to need a good scrub.

5 stars for this very professional picture!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun December 4, 2005:
Looks like Hasselblad quality to me? So you stood on top of an Arctic circle mountain and these Viggens flew past! Thanks for sharing it at 1600 pixels. When I posted my grainy old shot of a Viggen at Farnborough 72 I had no idea it was just a week til the Viggen was withdrawn, M West, UK

A visitor from Spain posted Sun December 4, 2005:
