I'm wondering if there is any interest for a real time Questions & Answers session for the Internet audience during the Finnish Urban Blitz 2003 convention.
The guest list is rather impressive, you see.
So far confirmed:
Kauko Aho, Blenheim bomber pilot, PLeLv 42
Torsti Tallgren, Messerschmitt 109 pilot after the wars
Erkki Pakarinen, Brewster/Me 109 pilot, HLeLv 24
Possibly Tapani Lampimäki, machine gunner/radio operator TLeLv 14/PLeLv 48
Possibly another Blenheim bomber pilot
Otso Leskinen, HLeLv 24 Messerchmitt pilot
A FiAF mechanic, who started in AF before the war, spent Winter War in infantry in the front lines, spent total 25 years in the AF as mechanic
Olavi Kauppila, Curtiss Hawk 75 pilot
And few younger guys, as a FiAF colonel and an aviation museum chief.
The programme includes
- Lecture about the Iljushin aircraft design bureau and IL-2 plane
- Lecture "Young pilot in the Lappland war"
- Speech from the Curtiss pilot
We might deliver the speeches live over the Internet and maybe we could even attempt to do that Q&A session:
- Video & audio stream over the net
- Audience can watch it all and ask questions through a web form
- All recorded and later transscribed to text / fully translated
Any interest?
