The Finnish Winter War
« on: February 19, 2003, 04:05:37 AM »
Hello there forum.
I am looking for information about the Finnish Winter-War.
The Map in AH sort of woke my interest, so I started reading a bit, but I don't have too much material about it.
What I am curious to know is the Air war in the Winter-War, and how that breaks down into crusial battles (if it did).
Also, the Order of battle before and after (How many planes of which types).
I am sure our Finnish friends have a ton of links and pictures, so brin them on ;)
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

This is the best webpage on the Winter war in my opinion. Lots of facts, detailed descriptions of battles, maps, equipment etc...
