Oct. 10, 1953 - Royal Swedish Air Force Goodwill Visit To R.A.F.: A new swept-wing barrel-fuselage jet fighter will be seen over England during the next few days. It is the j.29 of the royal Swedish Air Force, which is faster than any of the Meteors with which the RAF fighter squadrons are equipped. Today, eight of the Swedish J 29s landed at R.A.F. Station, Waterbeach Cambridge, on a week's goodwill mission. Photo shows. Flight Officer Wirdhan (nearest camera) and Flying Officer Barnard, two British pilots, examining the jet pipe of the Swedish J.29, at Waterbeach today
