Already wing-clipped. The first 3 arrived yesterday out of a total 14 jets. They will be destroyed in a environmentally safe matter.. SAAB paid 5 million SEK (US$715,000) to bring them home since they do not want them spread out all over the world.

x2 - btw what was that about them spreading out all over the world?
Are they afraid of Austria selling them to Iran or someting? ;)
