It was freeware.

Apparently on his blog...dating to around 2011...

I now feel that the Draken project has reached its logical end. After the Microsoft Flight Simulator franchise was discontinued I have gradually lost interest in flightsimming in general, and add-on development in particular, and I no longer have the time or energy to keep a full-scale web community running. And so I have decided to close shop.

What a pity! Thank you for the support Mr. JAFO

The site was up and running as of recently. I found a bug in the fuel system and reported it to Thomas back in December and he acknowledged my report and said he was working on a patch. I checked back since then and up to a couple of weeks ago, the fuel system patch wasn't added yet. The page outage is probably temporary and I believe he's still slowly working on a P3D only version (with the FSX version now being final).

Very good news! I'm very happy. Thank you!!!

The links in this thread are not loading for me either.

I just found what looks like an older version of the Draken, for FS2004, but according to the post it also works in FSX.

A search on Simviation for "Draken" results in quite a few different packages, including some from Thomas Nilsson (Bookmark).

That's best avoided. The FSX-native product is completely different to any previous version.

Some news : the version available at Simviation is 4.0 - but the latest is the 4.1.2 - I've managed to dwld it at the Bookmark site, but in a complicated way :

1 - Google search : Draken FSX
2 - Scroll down up to something like " AVSIM FORUMS Saab Draken "
3 - Open and there's a link to the Bookmark download page.
4 - Register (free) - they send you the Pasword.
5 - Log-in and from there you can access the download page !!!!!!!


Just downloaded and I'll try later
