About the Malmen Swedish Air Force Museum aircraft halls
In Malmslätt, on Malmen Airbase near Linköping, Sweden, stands the Swedish Air Force Museum, called Flygvapenmuseum in Swedish. In 1912 a flying school was founded at Malmen by Baron Carl Cederström, known as the "Flyer Baron", and the site is described as the cradle of Swedish aviation. The museum dates from 1984 and served at first as both the squadron museum of the Östgöta Wing and a storage building in Ryd. A second exhibition hall added in 1989 made room for many aircraft, from the decade after 1910 up to the JAS 39 Gripen.
A major expansion and rebuild came in 2010. The exhibitions are arranged by theme, among them pioneers in aviation, the years between the wars, the Second World War, aviation technology and Sweden during the Cold War, and they are spread across three levels. Two large, hangar-sized halls hold many aircraft, and a third exhibition downstairs shows a DC-3 downed in 1952 and discovered in 2003. After interim storage, it reached its final spot at the museum on May 13, 2009. The collection also includes a twin-engined Junkers Ju 86 bomber from Germany, described as the only one left anywhere.

- Long ridged roofs
- The long halls have many fine parallel ridges on their roofs. Print friendly adapts these small details to the print scale; a larger print and thin layers keep them crisp.
- A barrel-roofed hall
- One end hall has a rounded barrel roof, so layer lines can show on the curve. Layers of 0.12–0.16 mm keep it smooth.
- One piece with the ground
- The Malmen Swedish Air Force Museum aircraft halls is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
