I'm not quite sure that the Saab Gripen should be entered yet as this is not in regular usage? TiHead 21:58, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

A press release dated 5 May 2005here stated

This year, the Gripen aircraft will be fully integrated into the school’s training syllabus. For the first time, Gripen will be flown exclusively by ETPS personnel – with two-seat aircraft occupied by an ETPS IP and student on every flight. Until now, a Saab test pilot has always been on board but, during 2005, Gripen will be released entirely to the ETPS.
