Hello.
Did anyone know the fate of this nice plane, recovered some years ago in the Karelia, ex Finnish territory.

Oh, thank you for the links guys! That plane looks now much more better, and it’s nice to see that this one is in unrestored condition, as is after the emergency landing on the frosen lake.

I visited the Finnish Air Force Museum in Tikkakoski this summer and saw the Brewster. They have an excellent web page where you can take a virtual tour here http://www.airforcemuseum.fi/flash.asp?file=2

It’s owned by the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, but presently on loan to a museum in Finland.
Cheers,
