An amazing aeroplane, I really like the Viggen (and Draken). They came over for the Scampton show, did they not? Static only though I heard. Any ideas why?
UK CAA gave them a big no for display…
Rumor is she will go to Germany. Facility at Auburn will be closed.

Not really up to date but still a good overview.
Canada has also C-FTID-X

Agreed with Kenneth.
I asked to visit the aircraft, no reply… And just a hint. Search for the GoFundMe starter on FB. Seems he likes expensive things;-)
And then it went silent…
Apologies fro calling it very dodgy then. But I hope you understand the questions I and others have. Like I said I really would love to see her active again.
If your offer to visit her still stand I would love to. I can make a nice publication of it if you wish.
Ok fair enough. But can you understand the questions I asked? If you have access to the aircraft and want donations I would like to see some more views of the aircaft, movie clip that she is active for instance. And more info, like on which AOC will you fly? Still as N447FT? From what base? Is there cew current on the 44? Are there still licensed engineers? And what kind of cargo you are aming for? I mean ops in Dark Africa can mean also mean moving stuff that won’t help the local people there.
Or even better, invite someone who can make an article about here to raise awareness of the project. I will happily help you with that.
I support every effort to make her airworthy again. But a funding page with some old shots and a small explantion is al we see?
Show me some real live pictures/videos or a decent timeline/plan. AOC etc.
Imo this sounds more that someone is trying to get money in a easy way.
Sounds very dodgy. Suddenly there is funding needed for a commercial ops? Years no news and now this. Also not really impressed by the shots added.
Would like to see live pictures that you really work on her. Not old stuff.
Dont want to use the word but this smells like a sc.m….
Any help maybe from https://www.facebook.com/FaireyGannetXT752/

Great news. A shame HA-UTI didn’t last long otherwise there was one more.
