Very interesting post. The Finns certainly were superb airmen! Were
there any female combat pilots in the Finnish Air Force? Cheers,


No, women were not in combat duty. They performed very remarkably in the
women's auxiliary corps function, as "lottas", members of Lotta Svärd
organization. In Air Force duty their task was primarily aerial
surveillance.
