The real Finnish Air Force Fokker D.XXI FR-125 was stationed at Hyvinkää Air Field in 1941, my scale model represents how it looked like at the end of June '41, i.e. 70 years ago. These photos were taken at the very same airfield. The memorial plague text translation in English:
"Squadron 32 was operating from the Hyvinkää Air Field with Fokker D.XXI planes in the beginning of the Continuation War June 20th-July 1st protecting the cities and railways of Southern Finland."
