Kaivopuisto Airshow

Post by Berlingo »

Hello UKAR,

Here some pictures of the very enjoyable Kaivopuisto Airshow in Helsinki held on the 9th of June. :cool:

1) The first one is from the awful training day. The NH90 was the only machine able to perform.

9) The VFA-103's CAG aircraft was a very nice surprise, the Super Hornet was present as one of the contender for the Hornet remplacement, the HX Program.

Like those!

Is this a yearly show? I need to get over to see some of the euro shows. I have a soft spot for Finland and the Finnish in general!

I also would dearly like to see the Swedish historic team fly.

This year show was organized for the Finland 100 program, I heard that they want to make it again but nothing is confirmed yet, but there is good shows in Finland every year :smile:

Wow! Some very impressive images there! Hard to pick a favourite (although it might be #5!)
