Please read for details http://finaf100.fi/en/home/.

The Airshow consists of three parts. In the first part there will be flying airplane types which have been in the service during the past decades, such as Fokker D.VII, Gloster Gauntlet, Viima, Douglas DC-3, Saab 91D Safir and Fouga Magister CM.170.

In the second part there will be plane types from the near past to present such as BAE Systems Hawk, Valmet L-70 Vinka, Pilatus PC-12 NG, Airbus C-295M. The Army will fly in the display NH-90 and Hughes MD500 helicopters. The Finnish Border Guard will demonstrate H215 Super Puma and AW 119 Ke Koala.

The third part of the Airshow is reserved in addition to the F/A-18 C/D Hornet for international display teams and HX Fighter Program candidates, among which the next Air Force multi-role fighter will be chosen from.

Tickets can be bought online.

On Saturday, the Vinka visible in the far LHD of the hangar, before the flying Vinkas were put away, had a code ending in '0' (from photo). Is there any other option than VN-10 for this airframe?

Hi Terry,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, they would certainly have been possibilities if they had not been still outside the hangar, having just flown. I'm looking for confirmation of the one inside the hangar whilst VN-20 & VN-30 were outside.

Photo evidence of the Hawk listed as HW-375 shows it is indeed HW-376.

Grob G115 GO-27 is one of the older models (G-Bxxx series) as it has one antenna on its aft fuselage.

Great effort guys, thanks!

Some minor additions:

SF-36 OH-SFA was also on the nearby flightline Saturday morning

OH-HVN c/n 14759
NH-205 c/n 1044
169215 c/n G/148 on strut

Also, the Viima, is that confirmed as VI-15?
Over at the museum there was a leaflet for the restoration of Myrsky II MY-14. So that may have been the one at the airshow.

The Viima id was taken from a piece of paper taped to the frame.
