Title: A-26 made single engine landing at Helsinki
Post by: Fishu on July 05, 2005, 03:02:54 PM: A-26B Invader was supposed to visit at Helsinki-Malmi airport, in Finland, however apparently experienced engine problems and landed with one engine to Helsinki-Vantaa International airport, just couple of miles north of the GA airport Malmi.

Heres some pictures of the landing, in a finnish forum:

Anyways guess that's why it wasn't in Lappeenranta Airshow at the weekend; it was supposed to fly there with Swedish P-51D.

Couldn't see it there at Saturday; maybe it arrived after we left or maybe it was there at Sunday.

Edit: Saw the pic; that "platta" was full of aircrafts in Saturday. Pic has to be taken well after the airshow was over; looks like everyone has already left the parties.
