Putting aircraft on skis in winter was still commonplace in northern countries in the 1930s, and at Västerås - Hässlö, on Lake Mälaren, an ice runway was apparently preferred over a snowy airfield. The Bulldog's serial has a prefix for F1 wing, based at Västerås until 1983. The proper serial 212 is on the tailfin.
