Queen Suthida of Thailand successfully completed her first solo flight in a Gripen fighter jet, a JAS 39C, on October 8. The 48-year-old queen, who has over 1,188 hours of flight experience, took off from Wing 7 Air Base in Surat Thani and spent around 41 minutes in the air. Her husband, King Maha Vajiralongkorn, watched the flight and presented her with a special Gripen Order Golden Patch upon her return. This historic flight comes after weeks of simulator training and over 10 hours of flight training in a two-seat Gripen.
