I can give you some info about the airbases.
I got this out a mail from a finnish spotter to me:
If possible, you might consider coming to Tampere in May. There's an open day at the Air Force base usually in mid-May. Also the multinational ADEX2008 air combat exercise will be held from May 19th to June 1st. They will be using Tampere, Kuopio and Kauhava as their bases. Of course the biggest happening of the whole year is the Kauhava midnight sun airshow (http://www.lentajienjuhannus.fi/english" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). That's also a must for finnish spotters.
