A peek at Urban Blitz 03 convention and the WW2 vets
« on: February 04, 2003, 05:56:04 AM »
The Urban Blitz convention 03 is over and we're slowly trying to recover.

The online report is not online yet, unfortunately. But here's a few peeks what kind of great programme we enjoyed:

mr. Olavi Kauppila, Curtiss Hawk 75 pilot, HLeLv 32, describing an unusual event in his flying career.



Mr. Kauko Aho, Blenheim bomber pilot in 1944, PLeLv 42, telling about "Flying in the Lappland war as young pilot"



Mr. Torsten Sannamo, Blenheim radio operator/gunner, PLeLv 42, telling about a most unusual happening for one of their squadron's members.



Mr. Erkki Pakarinen, Brewster & Me 109 G fighter pilot, later flight teacher and a big boss in Finnish aviation ministry, taking a test flight on IL-2: Forgotten Battles Brewster.




Kuhlmey Squadron taking a toast for all the Spitfires that shall fall.



And a tired virtual pilot, the laptop booted too long...
