The restoration of a Finnish-made I.V.L. D.26 Haukka [“Hawk”] has began at the Finnish Aviation Museum in Vantaa. The Haukka was in many way similar to its main competitor, the Gloster Gauntlet. After several Haukka prototypes were build and tested against the Gauntlet, the Finnish Air Forces decided to take the latter one into use as its main fighter design in 1928.

The plane to be restored is the other of the two survived planes, “HA-39”.

There were three prototypes built, and their British competitor was of course the Gamecock, Gauntlets were still in the future…

That video was made at Kymi Airfield, SE Finland, where the Gauntlet is based. They also have a small aviation museum there, gliders and ex AF jets mostly.
Regarding the engine, Pembroke PR-2 at Finnish AF Museumum has both engines, so this one has to be from PR-1, which does not exist anymore.

I believe this is their Focke-Wulf Fw 44 project.

No it is not, this one is a fuselage frame of VL Tuisku, another complete example of which is on display inside the museum.

Finnish Air Force’s first cargo aeroplane, DC-2-115E “Hanssin Jukka” (c/n 1354, ex. PH-AKH, SE-AKE), is to be restored within next eighteen months to the scheme it was in June 1944. Carl Gustaf von Rosen bought the plane from KLM and donated it to FiAF during the Winter War. It was in use until 1955.

I’d not call it the first CARGO airplane, rather the first transport airplane of the FiAF…

Edit: and obviously this means: the first twin-engine transport etc….

I have pictures here of FT-481 (RN Traveller MkII) and DS 18?? (RAF Mk I) neither has the RDF fairing. If that is a Bleheim to the right, could that be a Russian twin in the hanger, SB2 (?) and tie in with the Finnish line mentioned on the other forum? Doesn’t answer the roundel question though:(

Sorry to disappoint you, but there is nothing Finnish in the photo. BC-1 was never camouflaged, neither was BC-2, which arrived in the fifties anyway, neither the hangars nor the uniforms resemble anything in Finland, not to mention the serials and roundels. BC-1 was previously ZS-BBC, and it was flown to Finland in its basic civilian colour scheme, which it retained throughout its life, it just wore registration OH-BCI for the ferry flight. After the war it became OH-PKA, being written off in December 1947.

Can’t see the picture, but I’m almost sure you mean with SKIS, not skies, which is a plural form of word sky…

Interesting, did you happen to note the registration of that impounded Lake Renegade?
