These walk-around photos were taken at Västerås Flygmuseum in 2017. They show a SAAB 91C Safir, Swedish Air Force serial 50080, c/n 91.395, civil registration SE-KYA, displayed in the authentic yellow and green colour scheme worn by the type throughout its Swedish Air Force career. The Safir was designed by A.J. Andersson — who had previously designed the Bücker Bü 181 Bestmann that it replaced — and first flew in November 1945, going on to become SAAB's greatest export success before the SAAB 340. The 91C was the four-seat development of the earlier 91B, with fuel tanks relocated to the wings and a constant-speed propeller, designated Sk 50C in Swedish service. Sweden received 14 Sk 50Cs, which served alongside the more numerous Sk 50B at the flying school at F 5 Ljungbyhed, forming the backbone of basic pilot training until replaced by the Scottish Aviation Bulldog in the early 1970s.
Built in 1960 and delivered directly to the Swedish Air Force, 50080 served under several unit codes — including 8-80 — before being retired and placed on the civil register as SE-KYA in 1994. Unlike many preserved Safirs it has remained airworthy throughout its civilian life, appearing regularly at airfields and airshows across Sweden including Västerås, Dala-Järna and Skavsta. It continues to fly as a veteran aircraft and has been photographed as recently as 2025.
