Hi Richard, I think it's the SAAB 201-202, a modified 91A Safir, fitted with J-29 style wings.

Oops, it looks like DA has pipped me to it, I'd have to be open house anyway, as I'm off-line soon!

I found your photo and it's just labelled the 202, but the main heading is 201-202!

Ton,

That one lasted 16 minutes.

Don't be sad about it - my record is 2 minutes!!!!

So my sensors have detected incoming fire over the ridge....so I might have to run for cover.
