Celebrate Finnish Air Force Day with a Decal and Discounts!

Finnish Air Force Day is celebrated on March 6th, the anniversary of the founding of the Finnish Air Force in 1918, when the first aircraft, a gift from Count Eric von Rosen, arrived in Vaasa. The holiday is primarily marked by ceremonies at air bases, including formations, awards and promotions, wreath-layings, and commemorative events. Open days and flyovers are also organized where possible.

The P-39N-0 is Temporarily Available for Alexander Pokryshkin’s Birthday!

On March 6th 1913, Alexander Ivanovich Pokryshkin was born. He was one of the most successful aces of the Second World war. His “thunderstorm formula” became a classic of aerial combat: “Altitude, speed, maneuver, fire!” Pokryshkin participated in 150 air battles and shot down approximately 50-60 enemy aircraft, for which he was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union three times.
