Finland has summers! The Finnish State Aircraft Factory built 21 Moths for the Finnish air force in 1929-30 with the old Cirrus engine. MO-103 was soon demobbed as K-SILD / OH-ILD. It ended up as far away as Australia as VH-SSC - see David Carter's 1979 photo. Photo from: Helsinki City Museum This photo was added on 8 June 2021, and has since been viewed 568 times. |
