The extraordinary Päijät-Hämeen ilmailumuseo near Lahti, in a very dark wooden storage hangar on the former WW2 Vesivehmaa air base is a collection of extremely rare and historic items run by a volunteer organisation that saved from scrapping many significant airframes stored there in the 1960s. Blackburn Ripon IIF RI140 is the only surviving example of this inter-war torpedo bomber anywhere in the world. One of 25 built under licence by the State Aircraft Factory between 1930 and 1934, it was also used for reconnaissance, liaison and target tug work.

'The Home Fleet's summer exercises. A Blackburn Ripon plane dropping a torpedo which can be seen [in uncropped photo] striking the water. This picture was taken from H.M. aircraft carrier Furious.' Some searching reveals that the year was 1933 and the unit the FAA's No 811 Sqn, with a red fuselage band. S1572 was built as a Ripon IIA but may have been modified to IIC standard with metal wings.
