Edited, broken links removed, FS Nordic didn't allow outsides to link to the pictures. Photos published on a web page now, see my next post on this thread.

Gauntlet pilot is Jyrki Laukkanen, a esteemed Finnish Air Force test pilot.
Photos taken 21.6.2005.

Seems like FS Nordic does not allow remote linking of their pictures.

The pics can be seen in this thread at the FSNordic forum. Text is in Finnish, photos are cool though. If pics don't show in that thread, refresh.
