The prototype, first flown on 1 July 1975. A Finnish-built trainer, 30 were built for the Finnish Air Force.

Arrived from Herning (EKHG) the day before. The Valmet L-70 Vinka was a Finnish-designed military basic trainer of the 1970's. 30 aircraft were built for the Finnish Air Force in the 1980's, with deliveries between October 1980 and 1982. Valmet attempted to market the type internationally under the name L-70 Miltrainer, but no orders followed. A turboprop version was built, with the prototype (OH-VBB) flying in February 1985. Unfortunately the aircraft was destroyed in an accident in April 1985. Judging the above info, it seems likely that OH-VAA was the prototype/demonstrator for the L-70.
