Delivery of Aero O/Y's second Ju 52 - OH-ALK was already put in service during 1932. These aircraft operated on floats in summer until the opening of Malmi airport in 1938. In peacetime after the Winter War on 14 June 1940, operating Aero O/Y flight 1631 from Tallinn, Kaleva was shot down by two Soviet DB-3 bombers during Soviet preparations to occupy Latvia. All nine people on board, including diplomatic couriers, were killed. This is said to have been the first commercial airliner shootdown by fighter aircraft in history.

The S-59 or XH-34 (originally YH-18B) was a development from the S-52-2 (YH-18A) with an XT51 (Artouste) turbine engine, four-blade rotor and retractable landing gear. Two XH-39s modified from H-18s. Seen in Building 6008 at Fort Rucker, this is the XH-39A, former c/n 52007, which flew and broke a few world records; the other XH-39, 49-2891 (c/n 59002) reportedly never flew as such. Type rejected in favour of Bell H-40 Huey. One civilian S-59, N74150, was also built and is preserved in the New England Air Museum. Photo by: Alan Wilson

The sleek Ao 192 V1 prototype in Finland in 1938, wearing aircraft type name [Der] Kurier on the nose. By this time it had a raised, braced tailplane, as fitted to the V2 prototype first. The photograph was presumably taken in September 1938 - an Ao 192 was then demonstrated in Stockholm along with Bü 133 Jungmeister OH-SEA. It may also have been in May 1938 when the SILI aviation exhibition was held in Helsinki. Photo from: Finnish Aviation Museum
