F11 Museum


You don't have to be a planespotter to enjoy this excellent little volunteer-run museum which gives an insight into the F11 aircraft and pilots who flew reconnaissance missions from the former base at Skavsta between 1965 and 1979. You can even take a half-hour flight in a simulator (200kr; book in advance).
