Embracing Darkness

摘要

There's a light sleet falling when the pilot from the 171. stridsflygdivision (171st Fighter Squadron) signals for the start of the auxiliary power unit (APU) with one flash of the position light on his JAS 39C Gripen. The signal is quickly returned from the technician in charge of the aircraft, closely followed by the characteristic howl of the Gripen's APU.
