This year the Göteborg (Gothenburg) Aero Show celebrate the 100th anniversary of Swedish Aviation with a massive air spectacle.
If everything turns out well, we expect to see the full range of Saab jet fighters in the air: Tunnan, Lansen, Draken, Viggen and Gripen – as well as Team 60 (fingers crossed), Hercules, C-17, choppers etc. from the Air Force. Basically everything that the Air Force & the Historic Flight are able to bring.
A number of international display teams & performers have been invited: Frecce Tricolori, PC-7 Team and the Danish Baby Blue are confirmed.
On the historic side, we have Mikael Carlson with his fantastic machines, Spitfire, Mustang, Moths, Dakotas, Hunter, Vampire etc. …airliners, aerobatics, etc. – in total some 100 aircraft on the ground and in the air. The Aeroseum underground hangar is worth the visit alone – as testified by Papa Lima and other forumites.

Note that we have some basic but appreciated spotters’ facilities.
Welcome to Gothenburg!

Well worth a visit by the looks, and apparently Ryanair fly directly into Gothenburg.
Wish I could go myself!

Hello Daniel,
Question: has the Hkp4 / KV-107 /CH-46 finally been retired from Swedish military service, or are there still some examples operational?
One example has been rarely flown for various tests during the last years. It is due to be retired and placed at the Aeroseum this summer.
The rest of the HKP 4 fleet has been mothballed awaiting decisions regarding the future of the Swedish Armed Forces heavy helicopters. It is more and more likely that they will be retired for good.
