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 (http://www.fsnordic.net/discussion/index.php?board=58;action=display;threadid=40790) at the FSNordic forum. Text is in Finnish, photos are cool though. If pics don't show in that thread, refresh.
