Hey all, I hope you enjoiy this video. This is obviously a completely new type of content and I have to learn a lot of new things. Filming at the museum has given me some ideas for the future, what to do and especially what not to do when filming real life segments. Currently, I am still somewhat limted with my equipment. This is especially obvious from the audio (I added subtitles). However, with the support many of you give me over Patreon, I will be able to invest in a better camera and a dedicated mic soon. This is going to boost the quality significantly. If you want to help out, check out my Patreon. I hope you enjoy and if you have any feedback, send it my way ;)

It was not a copy Bf 109, but was build as a Finnish equivalent to match it's performance. It was initiated to lessen Finnish reliance on German frontline fighters. The air frame was a totally different Finnish design. The cockpit layout and most of the instrumentation was from an earlier domestic design, VL Myrsky ( currently under restoration for the same museum ). DB605 engine, the nose-mounted cannon and some cockpit instruments were the only foreign parts also shared with BF 109 Gs. Engines, I think, were to be sourced from Sweden.

On the topic of swastika in the Finnish Air Force. Yes is is true that after the end of the Lappland War in April 1945 (a war forced by Soviet Union to expel the German for Finland after the end of the Continuation war) the FAF adopted the the current roundel. However in 1958 the swatika returned to the Finnish Air Force for the unit flags like Karelia, Satakunta and Häme Air Commands (Häme Air Command was relocated and re-named Lappland Air Command in 1974 but kept the original flag). Also Finnish Training Wing (Lentosotakoulu), witch was disbanted in 2014, Air Force Academy (Ilmasotakoulu) and several other units got flags with swastika. All of the flags are currently in use and feature a black swastika not blue. Nice video by the way !

I didn't see if anyone pointed it out yet but the Finnish Airforce swastika and the swastika of the Third Reich are inherently in connection to each other even if by a different context. Count Eric von Rosen whom's personal sign of "good luck" the blue swastika was was in fact the same man that gifted Finland Thulin typ D (Morane-Saulnier 'Parasol') whom Göring (who some of you may know was WW1 ace, flying in Jasta 1) later came acquainted with during his time in Sweden, both being aeronautical enthusiasts and via events you may read up on yourself if you so please. As far as I understand, Göring took the idea of this symbol back to Germany with him and eventually through twists and tumbles became the insignia of the Third Reich.
@MilitaryAviationHistory7 жыл бұрын
I know of the connection between von Rosen and Goering, I believe Goering actually married the sister of von Rosen's wife iirc.Yet, Swastika on a yellow back ground was also used as an 'high voltage' warning in Sweden at the time. Some other air forces also adopted just after WW1, example: Latvia. Companies, like Carlsberg, used it in their logo. Sports teams used it too. The symbol was literally everywhere, mostly used without the 45 degree tilt, and considered completely normal until the mid-1930s. As for the conntection of Goering and the NSDAPs use of the swastika, Hitler had already mentioned the symbol in 'Mein Kampf', nearly ten years before they met. The connection/ influence coming from Sweden is thus mute.

Almost every Brewster Buffalo that rose to meet the Japanese at the start of WW2 was shot down in quick order, it was perhaps the worst aircraft ever forced upon the U.S. Marines Corps. For aircraft history nerds if ever in the States you need to go to the USAF's Museum on Old Wright Field in Dayton Ohio (where many aircraft, including the B-17 was tested and modified), be sure to visit the annex buildings and just down the road is the Wright Brothers memorial on the hill overlooking Huffman Prairie where many of their glider test were done.

In Finland, Brewster Buffalo was actually the most successful fighter of the early Continuation War before Finland got Bf 109s. Ofcourse, Finns were mostly up againts worse pilots and planes than the US pilots were facing in the Pacific. Finnish Brewsters were also de-navalized, which lessened their weight and improved their performance.

@@Titus-as-the-Roman Well. No nation goes to war if it can avoid it. Sweden and Switzerland are prime examples. It's a hard to ship your boys to fight for a cause for no reason, until there is some event that hits a nation close enough home. The same policies by ruling European powers, France and Britain, cost Hitler taking Czechoslovakia practically without resistance and unabeling proper Polish mobilization. They rather opted for maintaining peace in Europe for a very high price, rather than shipping their boys for another Great war to the 'Far away countries, they knew nothing about' or letting those countries to give Hitler any sort of pretext. It was the wrong course of action to take with a leader as unscrupulous as Hitler. USA's support in the Winter war was very welcome, and although we were de facto Allies to Nazi Germany 1940 - 1944, US never declared a war on us or attacked us directly, and I've read somewhere, it was eventually the US providing reliable source of food,fertilizers and oil ( which we relied on the Germans ) that made it possible for the Finns to finally ditch the Germans in 1944. Had USA not come to the aid of the Europeans back then, I think we would generally live in a far more grim reality now, with two European Totalitarian regimes acting freely.

They also added a Experimental aircraft hangar full of x-planes and the presidential aircraft. I heard in that in 2018 they will be adding a strategic bombing section with the B-17 "Memphis Belle". I would really recommend you coming to see it. It is if not, one of the biggest aviation museum in the world. Another cool museum would be the Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola Florida which is home to the Navy's aerobatic stunt team, the Blue Angels.

Talk about the Differences of the Radial engine Designs vs Inline Engine Designs and their advantages and disadvantages to both. the 2 most powerful airforces of ww2 (Royal Airforce and the US Airforce) typically favored 1 design and not the other. The US typically favored Radial Engines. (With the exception of the Mustang) B-17 Flying fortress, B-29 Super Fortress, B-25 Mitchell, B-24 Liberator, F4U Corsair, F6F Hellcat, P47 Thunderbolt etc etc While the UK typically favored Inline Engines. Wellington, Lancaster, Spitfire, Hawker Hurricane, Hawker Typhoon, Mosquito ect ect. Me personally I like the Radial engines more, they just look meaner and bigger.
@jarmokankaanpaa65284 жыл бұрын
At least with Britain, it depended partly on the manufacturer. Bristol, which made its own radial engines, also turned out radial engined aircraft (Blenheim, Beaufort, Beaufighter); Bristol radials were also used in the HP Hampden & Halifax B III, Blackburn Skua & Roc, Fairey Swordfish and Albacore, Gloster Gladiator, Westland Lysander, Hawker Tempest II and the post-war Sea Fury, AW Albemarle, Short Stirling and Sunderland, Vickers Wellington, Supermarine Walrus... Most interwar types also had radial engines. As for the US, other inline fighters included the P-38, P-39, P-40, and P-63, but admittedly bombers and other military types used radials.
